Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Wash and dry the sweet potatoes thoroughly.
Step 3
Cut the sweet potatoes into bite-sized chunks, roughly 1-inch pieces, ensuring a consistent size for even roasting.

Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, maintaining some space between the chunks for optimal crisping.

Sprinkle the fresh rosemary evenly over the sweet potatoes.
