These Crispy Parmesan Sweet Potatoes are a sweet potato twist on my viral parmesan potato recipe (that has over 71 million views and counting!) They're made with less than 10 simple ingredients, are budget-friendly, and are perfect for serving as a delectable side dish, or enjoying as a decadent snack or appetizer on their own!

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet this helps the potatoes get nice and crispy!

Ingredients

For the Sweet Potatoes:

  • 1 ½ Pounds Sweet Potatoes halved
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Italian Seasoning
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Sea Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 ½ Cups Parmigiano Reggiano freshly grated

For Garnishing:

  • 1 Handful Chives chopped

Instructions

  • To make these potatoes, start by preheating your oven to 425 F.
  • Next, wash and scrub the potatoes and cut them in half. If you're using larger sized sweet potatoes, you may want to cut them into chunks.
  • Transfer the cut potatoes to a large bowl and add in the olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are fully coated in the oil and seasonings.
  • Next, grate the parmigiano reggiano into a bowl.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the cheese out in an even layer across it.
  • Then, transfer the potatoes to the baking sheet and place them cut-side down, pressing them into the cheese. Repeat until all of the potatoes are lined up on the sheet.
  • Finally, bake the potatoes for 25-26 minutes.
  • Once they're done, remove them from the oven and allow the potatoes to rest for 10 minutes, until the cheese hardens.
  • Then, use a spatula to remove the potatoes from the pan.
  • Garnish with fresh chop chives, if desired, then serve and enjoy!
