Ingredients

  • Juice and finely grated zest from 1 lime preferably organic
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons refined coconut oil melted
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice (reserve the zest for later), coconut oil, salt, and Sriracha.
  3. Cut the sweet potatoes into 1-inch (25-mm) slices, either circles or half circles. Dump them in the bowl and toss to coat with the lime Sriracha elixir.
  4. Arrange the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheets. Roast, stirring at least once or twice, until fork tender, 30 to 40 minutes.☞ TESTER TIP: The sweet potatoes will be unevenly spotted with brown patches, sorta like a leopard, when done.
  5. Transfer to a platter. Taste and, if desired, add more salt and Sriracha. Sprinkle with the lime zest and cilantro and commence the devouring.
