§  Prep Time: 10 minutes
§  Cook Time: 20 minutes
§  Total Time: 30 minutes
§  Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

§  2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1/8-inch thick slices (use a mandoline slicer for best results)
§  Salt and pepper to taste
§  1/2 cup natural peanut butter
§  2 tablespoons rice vinegar
§  2 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
§  1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
§  2 teaspoons coconut sugar or brown sugar
§  1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
§  1 garlic clove, minced
§  2-4 tablespoons water
§  Pinch of red pepper flakes or sriracha to taste (optional)
§  1 small red bell pepper, seeded and diced
§  1 small carrot, peeled and shredded
§  1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
§  1/2 cup sliced green onions
§  1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts
§  Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

1.       Preheat oven to 400ºF.
2.       Place the sweet potato slices on two baking sheets that have been sprayed with oil—they should be side-by-side, but not overlapping. Spray the tops with additional oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes, then flip the slices over and bake for about 10 minutes more, until just beginning to crisp. Remove from the oven.
3.       While the sweet potatoes are roasting, start the peanut sauce. Whisk together the peanut butter, rice vinegar, tamari, sesame oil, sugar, ginger, garlic, and 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl. If the sauce is too thick, add more water one tablespoon at a time. (Different brands of peanut butter have different consistencies!) Add red pepper flakes or sriracha to taste, if using.
4.       Divide the sweet potato slices onto 4 plates and drizzle them with peanut sauce. Top with the diced pepper, shredded carrot, cilantro, green onions, and roasted peanuts and serve with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

Notes

I use a Misto filled with grapeseed oil, but if you don’t have an oil mister, you can simply toss the potato slices with a tablespoon of your preferred cooking oil and then transfer them to the baking sheets.
