Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (for added flavor, optional)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures that your sweet potato rounds cook evenly and become perfectly crispy.

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Peel the sweet potatoes (if desired) and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds, aiming for uniform thickness for even cooking.

      Season the Sweet Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.

        Coat the Rounds: Add the sweet potato rounds to the bowl and gently toss them in the spice mixture, ensuring each round is well coated.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup. Spread the sweet potato rounds in a single layer, leaving a little space between each round for even roasting.

            Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the sweet potato rounds for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through. They should be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside when done.

              Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, remove the sweet potato rounds and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro and crumbled feta cheese if using. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick!

                Enjoy: These spicy chili sweet potato rounds can be served as a delicious side, a topping for salads, or a tasty appetizer for your next gathering.
