Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 large sweet potatoes or 3 large yams
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper (more or less to taste- but be warned, ground chipotle is hot)
salt

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes.
Cut each sweet potato into bite-sized chunks (make each piece roughly about an inch).
Add the sweet potato pieces, the extra virgin olive oil, cinnamon, and chipotle to a gallon-sized storage bag.
Close the storage bag and shake, making sure all of the spices are evenly distributed on the pieces (otherwise you might find out what happens when too much chipotle sticks to an individual piece).
Spread out the spiced sweet potato pieces in an even layer onto a baking sheet.
Salt to taste.
Bake the sweet potatoes in the oven for 15 minutes, then using a spatula to turn them, place them back in the oven for another 15-20 minutes. If you like them crisper, you can add a few minutes, just make sure to check on them so they don't burn. Serve them as they are, or you can dip them in ketchup like french fries.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings, about 1 cup each

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes, scrubbed (peeled, if desired) and cut into 1-inch wedges or pieces
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper (see Note) or 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

Roasted potatoes get a spicy, smoky flavor when tossed with ground chipotle peppers. If you like potato skins, just scrub the potatoes and leave the skins on-they add fiber and great texture.
