Ingredients
Sweet Potato Coins:
- 1 ½ pounds sweet potato about 3 medium, choose long narrow potatoes
- 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- ¾ teaspoon cumin ground
- ¾ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 6 ounces cheddar cheese grated
Chipotle Crema:
- ½ cup yogurt plain, Greek
- 1 teaspoon chipotle pepper minced, in adobo sauce
- ½ teaspoon adobo sauce from the can
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- ¼ cup scallions sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Wash the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch slices or “coins.” Place them in a bowl and add the oil, cumin, paprika and salt. Toss to combine well. Arrange the potato coins on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the oven 10 minutes, then flip and roast another 10 minutes until tender.
- Remove the tray from the oven and sprinkle the coins with equal amounts of cheese. Return the tray to the oven and cook an additional 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile, make the chipotle crema by mixing the yogurt, chipotles, adobo sauce and lime juice together in a small bowl.
- Arrange the sweet potato coins on a serving platter. Top each with a dollop of chipotle crema. Garnish with scallions.
