Sweet Potato Chunks




These are my latest addiction. They taste more like eating candy than like eating a vegetable. Even my mother, who doesn't really like sweet potatoes, thought these were good. Furthermore they're really easy to make, in small batches or large.

Roasted Sweet Potato Chunks

1 sweet potato per person
Olive oil
Coarse salt
Pepper

Preheat oven to 450F. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice into about 3/4 inch chunks. Place in a single layer in a jellyroll pan. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Mix them together in the pan, either with a spoon or your hands, until evenly coated. Roast in the oven until fork tender about 20-30 minutes depending on the size of your pan and the amount of potatoes in it. Enjoy.
