Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Sage
Elevate your autumn feasts with our delightful Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Sage, a simple yet flavorful side dish that captures the essence of the season, featuring organic ingredients you can easily find at your local health food store or organic grocery store. These organic sweet potatoes, peeled and expertly sliced, are the stars of the dish, forming a beautiful overlapping spiral that snugly fits into your oven-proof skillet or casserole dish. A drizzle of organic olive oil, a sprinkle of sea salt, and a touch of organic butter infuse them with richness and depth of flavor. Fresh organic sage leaves add a fragrant and earthy note that complements the sweetness of the potatoes. After a brief stint under foil to soften, these sweet potatoes emerge tender and caramelized, ready to be adorned with the final flourish: a drizzle of organic local honey and a garnish of fresh sage leaves. Whether you're serving a special occasion meal or a weeknight dinner, this dish is the perfect accompaniment to your autumn table, offering a taste of comfort and warmth in every bite.
INGREDIENTS:
2 1/2 - 3 large Organic sweet potatoes, peeled and evenly sliced (1/4 inch)
5-8 fresh Organic sage leaves (more for garnish)
1 T Organic Olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
3 tablespoons Organic butter (divided)
1 tablespoon Organic local honey
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Grease the bottom of an oven proof skillet or casserole dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Arrange the sliced sweet potatoes in an overlapping spiral in your dish. Fit them in as snugly as you can but try to keep them in a single layer, so they cook evenly. Overlapping is fine.
Melt the butter, pour over the potatoes, sprinkle with sea salt and place sage leaves on top of potatoes. Cover with foil and cook for 20 minutes.
Remove foil and continue to cook until potatoes are tender (about 10 minutes longer).
Remove from heat and drizzle honey over sweet potatoes. Garnish with fresh sage.
