ROASTED SWEET POTATO CUBE SKEWERS
w/ CILATRO-JALAPENO AIOLI DIP
INGREDIENTS – SERVES – 6
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp smoked paprika
lemon zest (salt substitute) and pepper – to taste
skewers
Dip
½ cup reduced fat mayonnaise
2 jalapeno chilies – chopped (seeded for less heat)
1 cup fresh cilantro
Juice from one lime
INSTRUCTIONS
In a food processor or blender combine mayo, jalapenos, and cilantro, pulse until smooth, pour into a bowl. Add half of lime juice, if you like it more citrusy, add more lime juice, cover, and refrigerate for one hour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Dice potatoes into one inch cubes. Place cubes in a medium size bowl with all the ingredients, toss with hands to coat evenly. Arrange in a single layer on parchment paper lined baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes or until tender yet crispy on the outside. Stir potatoes once or twice during roasting. Remove from oven and allow to cool just enough to handle, skewer cubes, grab dip…Enjoy!
NOTE: If you prefer to grill, soak skewers for an hour, roast sweet potatoes for 20 minutes, remove from oven to cool. Once they are cool enough to handle, load skewers and cook on grill 10-20 minutes turning often.
