Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 TBSP avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne, more or less depending on your heat preference
  • 2 TBSP freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 2 TBSP honey
  • Zest of 1 lime
  • Chopped fresh parsley or cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  • Start by preheating the air fryer for 400º F.
  • Peel the skin off of the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1/2-inch cubes, then transfer them into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the avocado oil over the sweet potatoes and toss to coat. Then sprinkle the seasoning over the sweet potatoes and toss them again, evenly coating them in the spices.
  • When the air fryer is ready at 400º F, give the basket a quick spritz of cooking spray and transfer the potatoes to the air fryer basket, ensuring the potatoes are sitting in an even layer.
  • Cook for 12 minutes; stop at the 6 minute mark to give the basket a good shake.
  • While the potatoes cook, whisk the honey, lime juice, and lime zest in a small bowl.
  • When the potatoes are done, transfer them to a large mixing bowl and drizzle them with the honey lime dressing; toss them to coat them evenly.
  • Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or cilantro and serve.
