Ingredients
  

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into ½-inch thick medallions

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon dried Italian herbs (such as basil, oregano, and thyme)

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Chili flakes for a little heat

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato medallions with olive oil, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.

      Season: Add the minced garlic, dried Italian herbs, salt, pepper, and chili flakes (if using) to the bowl. Toss well to distribute the flavors.

        Cheesy Coating: Gently fold in the grated Parmesan cheese, making sure it's evenly distributed among the medallions.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the sweet potato medallions on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure there is some space between each piece to ensure even roasting.

            Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes until the sweet potatoes are tender and the edges are crispy. You can turn them halfway through cooking for even browning.

              Garnish: Once done, remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

                Serve: Serve the medallions warm as a tasty side dish or a healthy snack. Enjoy!
