Ingredients

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons chopped parsley

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

1. Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into uniform 1 to 1.5 inch pieces.

2. Melt butter in a small saucepan and gently cook minced garlic for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

3. In a large bowl, toss sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic butter, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

4. Spread the potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.

5. Roast at 425°F (220°C) for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway through.

6. Remove from oven and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

7. Broil for 2–3 minutes until cheese is melted and slightly crispy.

8. Garnish with chopped parsley and a final pinch of salt before serving.


Notes

Use freshly grated parmesan for the best flavor and melting results.

Flip the potatoes halfway through roasting to ensure even crisping.

To reheat leftovers and keep them crispy, use an oven or air fryer instead of the microwave.
