Ingredients
- 5 sweet potatoes (about 1.5 to 2 pounds)
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 2 to 4 tsp. herbes de Provence
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- fresh cracked black pepper
- 3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil - divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Rearrange the racks in the oven, and place one rack in the middle of the oven.
- On a large baking pan, drizzle one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, and use your fingers to spread it evenly on the bottom of the pan. Set it aside.
- Wash and scrub each sweet potato and dry them with a paper towel.
- Leaving the skins on, cut the potatoes into 6 lengthwise to make long wedges, about 1-inch wide.
