Chef's Note

For extra crispy sweet potato wedges, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before baking to remove excess starch. Just be sure to dry them thoroughly afterward. You can also customize the spice blend by adding a pinch of cayenne for heat or cinnamon for sweetness.

Ingredients
  • 2 whole medium sweet potatoes

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 medium ripe avocados

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

  • 1 small garlic clove, minced

  • 1/2 small jalapeño, seeded and finely diced

  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt

  • 2 whole green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • 2

    Wash and scrub 2 medium sweet potatoes, then pat dry. Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4-5 wedges of equal size.

  • 3

    In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with 2 tablespoons olive oil until evenly coated.

  • 4

    In a small bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

  • 5

    Sprinkle the spice mixture over the oiled sweet potatoes and toss until evenly coated.

  • 6

    Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don't overlap.

  • 7

    Bake for 15 minutes, then flip the wedges and bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the outside but tender inside.

  • 8

    While the wedges are baking, prepare the avocado dip by cutting 2 avocados in half, removing the pits, and scooping the flesh into a medium bowl.

  • 9

    Add 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice to the avocados and mash until somewhat smooth but still maintaining some texture.

  • 10

    Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, 1 minced garlic clove, 1/2 finely diced jalapeño, 1/4 cup Greek yogurt, and salt to taste.

  • 11

    Mix the avocado dip thoroughly and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with sliced green onions.

  • 12

    Once the sweet potato wedges are done, let them cool for 5 minutes before serving with the avocado dip.
