Sea Salt Sweet Potato Steak Fries

Sea Salt Sweet Potato Steak Fries

Yield: 2 servings From Episode 26

Chunky skin-on sweet potato steak fries roasted crisp with olive oil, sea salt, and pepper—a lighter spin on a classic side.

Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato or 2 medium, scrubbed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt crystals (optional)

Steps

  1. Heat oven to 425°F. Coat a large baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  2. Scrub the sweet potato(s) thoroughly. Halve, quarter, then cut into large steak-fry wedges.
  3. Spread the wedges on the prepared sheet. Drizzle oil evenly over them. Season with sea salt and pepper and toss by hand.
  4. Space the potato steaks in a single layer without crowding. Split across two sheets if necessary.
  5. Bake 15 minutes on the middle rack. Flip and bake 10 to 12 minutes more, or until the edges begin to brown.
  6. Finish with coarse sea salt crystals if you like. Serve hot.
