Step 1

Wash and scrub sweet potatoes thoroughly. There's no need to fully peel them, but I often quickly run a peeler over them and peel about half of the skin (becuase a bite of mostly skin tends to be chewy). Dry potatoes well with a towel or paper towel.

Step 2

Cut sweet potatoes in half length-wise, and then cut each half into 4 long strips. Chop each of the strips into small quarter-moons, about 1/2 thick.

Step 3

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread onto baking sheet, drizzle with 2 teaspoons of olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat.

Step 4

Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until crisped, flipping once halfway through to make sure that both sides get crispy. Turn broiler on low for 60 seconds at the end if needed to get crispy.
