Sweet Potato Fries with Sweet & Spicy Dipping Sauce

Share

Why don’t I make these more often? Every time I do, I remember how much I love them. Serve these scrumptious fries and sauce with Panko Pork Chops, KP Chicken Tenders, or Pan Seared Salmon.

Ingredients:
2 large sweet potatoes
1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt, to taste
1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Dash cayenne pepper

Directions:

  1. Pre heat oven to 420 degrees F.
  2. Peel sweet potatoes, and throw out peels.
  3. Cut potatoes in half; then into 2-inch strips. (Try for even-sized pieces for even baking.)
  4. Pile strips on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  5. Drizzle olive oil on top.
  6. Using your hands, toss to coat.
  7. Spread potato strips into a single layer.
  8. Bake 15 minutes.
  9. Remove from oven, and using a metal spatula, carefully flip over potato strips.
  10. Continue baking an additional 5-10 minutes, checking that they get golden brown, but don’t burn.
  11. Remove from baking sheet with metal spatula and place onto a paper towel lined plate.
  12. Salt to taste.
  13. While fries are baking, make sauce by whisking together maple syrup with Dijon mustard and cayenne in a small bowl.
  14. Serve fries hot with dipping sauce on the side.
