Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, jerk seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.

  3. Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized.

  4. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20-30 seconds on each side, until they are soft and pliable.

  5. Once the sweet potatoes are done, assemble your tacos by spooning the roasted sweet potatoes onto each warm tortilla.

  6. Top the tacos with your choice of avocado slices, sliced red cabbage, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice for an extra burst of flavor.

  7. Serve the Jerk Spiced Sweet Potato Tacos warm and enjoy the explosion of Caribbean-inspired flavors in every bite!
