BBQ Sweet Potatoes

sweet potatoes (equals 1.5 lbs.)

olive oil

smoked paprika

garlic powder

onion powder

Italian seasoning

kosher salt

pepper

BBQ sauce

coleslaw (optional)

jalapenos (optional)

Thoroughly wash and scrub 2 medium sweet potatoes. Dry with a towel and cut the sweet potatoes into rounds. The rounds should be roughly 1/2&quot; thick. Try to make sure the rounds are all relatively the same size so they cook evenly.

Place the sweet potato rounds into a large bowl or casserole dish. Drizzle 3 Tbsp. olive oil over the top. Toss until completely coated.

Sprinkle 2 tsp. smoked paprika, 2 tsp. garlic powder, 2 tsp. onion powder, 1 tsp. Italian seasoning, and 1/2 tsp. each of kosher salt and pepper over the potatoes. Toss until completely coated in the olive oil and spices.

Heat a grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the sweet potato rounds on the surface of the grill over the direct heat. Cook for 5 minutes on the first side. Flip and cook for another 5 minutes on the second side over direct heat.

Transfer the sweet potato rounds to the indirect heat. Using a grill basting brush, place a generous amount of BBQ sauce over each potato round. Cover and cook for 1 minute.

Flip the sweet potato rounds, generously brush the second side with more BBQ sauce. Cover and cook for 1 more minute.Once all of the sweet potato rounds are tender, but not mushy and easily pierced with a fork, remove from the grill and set aside.

To Serve: These sweet potatoes can be served on their own as a side dish. Feel free to garnish with minced chives or herb of choice.Alternately, they can be served as a sandwich. Place a few grilled sweet potatoes on a gluten free bun (or regular bun if not GF) and top them with coleslaw and pickled jalapenos.

Perfect! Thank you! Can't wait to try them!

I don't have a grill. Can I roast these in the oven or cook them in a cast iron skillet and achieve similar results? They look delicious!

Lightly dressed with olive oil and salt, this easy grilled sweet potato recipe is the super-easy side dish you didn’t know you needed.

The Modern Proper

Place the sweet potatoes on a large rimmed sheet pan. Drizzle the potatoes with the olive oil and sprinkle all over with 1 teaspoon of the salt, toss to coat completely. Arrange the sweet potatoes on the grill, cut side down. Grill, turning every 2-3 minutes until fork tender, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the dressing. In a blender or food processor, combine the yogurt, green onions, dill, garlic, basil, lemon juice, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Blend until smooth, about 1-3 minutes.

Transfer the sweet potatoes to a serving platter. Drizzle with the yogurt dressing and top with fresh dill. Serve family style.

I made this tonight for the first time, it’s really good! The natural sweetness of the potatoes, along with the smoke from the grill, really pops up against the herby yogurt lemony sauce.  So easy, I just mixed up the sauce in a large cup and a emersion blender.  - We will be making this dish again.  * served w/ the Huli-Huli chicken! So good!!

These were delicious and that yogurt dressing is incredible.
