Smoked Sweet Potato With Pork Cheek Tequila Cilantro Lime Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to medium-high (direct heat).
• Brush the sliced sweet potatoes with olive oil and rub with about 1 teaspoon of spice mix per side.
• Lay potatoes on the grill and cook until grill lines form, 5-6 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until cooked through and tender, about 5-6 more minutes. Remove from the grill and lay on a platter. Squeeze lime juice over the top and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Using a fork, poke a few holes in the skin of the sweet potatoes. Set them aside.
• Preheat your smoker to a medium-low temperature (about 275°F).
• Place the sweet potatoes into the smoker and cook for about 1 hour, or until they begin to soften inside. Wrap the sweet potatoes in aluminum foil and return to the smoker for 1 hour until completely softened. Pull the sweet potatoes off the and let cool for 2 minutes.
• While the sweet potatoes cook, in a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and allspice. Set aside.
• Slit open the cooked sweet potatoes. Top each with 1 tablespoon (14 g) of butter, a sprinkle of the brown sugar spice mix, and a drizzle of honey. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Toss sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a shallow baking pan. Arrange potatoes in 1 layer and roast, stirring halfway through roasting, until tender, about 25 minutes total. Stir together cayenne, zest, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Whisk together lime juice and remaining tablespoon oil in a medium bowl, then add potatoes. Sprinkle with cayenne mixture and cilantro, stirring gently to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Cut sweet potatoes into 25 to 40 smaller "French fry"-shaped pieces.
• Place sweet potato pieces in a bowl. Coat with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until sweet potatoes are evenly coated; transfer to a large baking sheet.
• Place pumpkin seeds into the same bowl. Add 1/4 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Spread pumpkin seeds onto a small baking sheet.
• Place sweet potatoes and pumpkin seeds in the preheated oven. Bake pumpkin seeds for 2 minutes; remove and let cool. Bake potatoes, flipping halfway through, about 15 minutes.
