Ingredients

Instructions

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

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to make the teriyaki sauce.

  3. Place the sweet potato cubes in a large mixing bowl and drizzle half of the teriyaki sauce over them. Toss gently to coat the sweet potatoes evenly.

  4. Spread the coated sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

  5. Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized, turning them halfway through and brushing with the remaining teriyaki sauce.

  6. Remove from the oven and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
