Batata Con Nueces

Ingredients

Sweet potatoes

4 medium, peeled and cut into cubes

Olive oil

3 tablespoons

Garlic powder

1 teaspoon

Paprika

1 teaspoon

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Black pepper

1/4 teaspoon

Walnuts

1 cup, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.
3. Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
4. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized.
5. While the sweet potatoes roast, heat a small pan over medium heat. Add the chopped walnuts and toast for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are fragrant and golden brown.
6. Once the sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.
7. Serve hot as a delightful side dish or as a hearty main course. Enjoy this dish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze for added flavor.
