Melting Sweet Potatoes

These caramelized potatoes will melt in your mouth with a crisp, sweet exterior that are velvety, tender inside. Pair them with just about anything from turkey, to pork, to a juicy steak! This recipe serves 2 people but can easily be doubled or tripled.

Ingredients:

1 large sweet potato (about 3/4 lb) sliced in 1" rounds, unpeeled

1 tbsp butter, melted

1 tbsp olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup beef broth

1 1/2 tsps honey

1 tsp sweet chili oil

2 garlic cloves, slivered 

Preheat the oven to 500°F. Combine the melted butter, olive oil, salt and pepper in a bowl then add the potato slices and mix to coat. Place the slices in a 9 X 9" metal baking pan (not glass), making sure there is space between each slice, and drizzle any remaining oil/butter on top. Roast for 12-15 minutes then flip them over and return to the oven for another 12-15 minutes. Whisk the broth, honey and sweet chili oil together and pour over the sweet potato slices. Sprinkle the garlic slivers around and back to the oven for yet another 12-15 minutes or until golden, tender and just a little bit charred on the edges. Serves 2
