How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  • Step 3: Cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick slices.

  • Step 4: In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a flavorful marinade.

  • Step 7: Once the sweet potatoes are grilled to your liking, remove them from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.

  • Step 8: Sprinkle fresh cilantro over them sweet potatoes, if desired.

  • Step 9: Serve hot with lime wedges on the side, to squeeze over the sweet potatoes.
