Fiery Grilled Sweet Potatoes
Serves four
1 1/2 tbsp. firmly packed brown sugar
1-2 tsp. ground cumin
1-2 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/8 tsp. salt
1 lb. sweet potatoes (1 lg.), cut into 1/8-inch slices
1 tbsp. olive oil
In a small bowl, stir together sugar and spices. Set aside 1 tbsp. of the mixture.
In a medium bowl, stir in oil to coat sweet potatoes. Sprinkle with all brown sugar mixture except the reserved 1 tbsp. Turn to coat.
Heat a large nonstick stovetop grill or skillet on medium-high heat. Careful not to overlap slices, cook half the sweet potatoes for 12-15 min., or until lightly browned and thoroughly cooked, turning occasionally. Transfer to a platter. Cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with remaining slices. Spring all with reserved brown sugar mixture.

Loved the sweet potatoes with our Easter dinner! I made some with and some without the spicy red pepper flakes. They baked in the oven in under 30 minutes, in an oiled pan.....Thanks! From a fellow RD.
