Ingredients

Scale

Let’s gather everything we need. These ingredients are straightforward and probably already sitting in your pantry, waiting to transform into something special.

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, scrubbed clean
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

If you’re out of oregano, thyme makes a great substitute. And for a little heat, a pinch of cayenne pepper can work wonders!

Instructions

Here’s where the magic happens! Follow these steps to create your own little piece of culinary art.

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a bit of olive oil.
  2. Cut the sweet potatoes into wedges. I find that cutting them lengthwise into six or eight pieces works best for even cooking.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, and paprika. Add the sweet potato wedges and toss until they are well-coated.
  4. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded, as this helps them get crispy.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through. When they are golden brown and crispy on the edges, they are ready.
  6. Once out of the oven, sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the hot wedges. The residual heat will melt the cheese, creating a beautiful, savory crust.
  7. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.

From my kitchen to yours, these wedges are a testament to the power of flavor and simplicity. They’re a frequent request at our family dinners, and I’m sure they’ll become a favorite at yours too.
