A delightful twist on roasted sweet potatoes, enhanced with aromatic garlic and fresh herbs for a flavorful side dish.
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking and proper caramelization of the sweet potatoes.
Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into evenly sized cubes.
Uniform pieces cook evenly, preventing some from overcooking while others remain underdone.
Place the sweet potato cubes in a zip lock bag.
Using a bag makes it easy to coat the sweet potatoes evenly with the seasoning.
Add olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the bag.
You can adjust the seasoning to your taste preferences at this stage.
Seal the bag and shake it well to coat the sweet potatoes evenly.
Ensure all pieces are well coated for maximum flavor.
Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to allow the sweet potatoes to roast rather than steam.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden brown.
Stirring halfway ensures even cooking and prevents sticking.
Remove from the oven and serve hot, garnished with additional thyme if desired.
Serving immediately ensures the sweet potatoes retain their crispy edges and warm, soft centers.
