Grilled Chipotle Sweet Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Microwave the sweet potatoes until just starting to soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool, then slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
• Whisk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, the cumin, chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the potato slices and gently toss to coat. Transfer to the grill and cook until charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
• Mix the cilantro, remaining 1/4 cup vegetable oil, lime zest and juice and chipotle in a bowl; season with salt. Thin with more lime juice if needed. Spoon the dressing over the sweet potatoes.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In small bowl, mix sauce ingredients; set aside.
• Cut each sweet potato lengthwise into 4 or 5 slices; brush both sides with oil. Carefully brush additional oil on grill rack. Place potatoes on grill over medium heat; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the salt.
• Cover grill; cook 8 to 10 minutes, turning once and sprinkling with remaining 1 teaspoon salt, until potatoes are tender. Serve with sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
• Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared sheet pan and pierce each potato 4 times with a small knife. Roast for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until very tender inside when tested with a knife. Set aside until cool enough to handle. (Leave the oven on.) Peel the potatoes, discard the skins and place the potatoes in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
• Meanwhile, place the milk, cream, chipotle chile and adobo sauce in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. (It might look curdled.)
• With the mixer on low speed, add the chipotle-milk mixture to the sweet potatoes. Add the maple syrup, butter and 1 tablespoon salt. Mix until the potatoes are coarsely pureed. Pour into a 9-by-12-by-2-inch oval oven-to-table baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, until heated through. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve hot.
• Make ahead: Prepare the sweet potato mixture, spoon it into the baking dish, cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Bake at 350 degrees F for 40 to 45 minutes, until hot.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium.
• For sauce: mix honey, chopped chilies and adobo sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For potatoes: scrub potatoes and cut each one lengthwise into 4 or 5 slices.
• Brush both sides with oil.
• Place on grill and sprinkle with salt.
• Cover and grill for 8-10 minutes, turning once and sprinkling the other side with salt.
• Cook until tender.
• Remove and place on a platter. Serve with sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Make dip: Puree all ingredients in a food processor until smooth, with red and green flecks still visible. Cover and chill.
• Make sweet potatoes: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add potato wedges. Cook for 5 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined tray and pat dry. Let cool.
• Preheat grill to medium and oil grates.
• Toss potato wedges with oil and sprinkle with garlic salt.
• Grill potatoes, turning often, until just tender and slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Just before serving, taste dip and add additional salt if desired.
• Serve potato wedges with dip on the side.
