Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 F.
Add the chopped sweet potatoes to a large half sheet baking pan. Drizzle with olive oil and add garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
Spread the sweet potatoes evenly in a single layer and roast for 35-40 minutes until tender and golden brown, giving it a quick stir halfway through baking. For extra crispy sweet potatoes, broil on high for 2-3 minutes at the end.
Serve immediately with a sprinkle with chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese on top (optional).

Notes

Make it more herby: For a more herby flavor, toss in 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves before roasting.

How to store: Place leftover roasted sweet potatoes in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

How to reheat: Reheat in a 400F preheated oven for about 10 minutes until warm and crisp, or in the air fryer at 400F for 5-10 minutes until warm.

How to freeze: Spread leftover sweet potatoes on a lined baking sheet and freeze for 2 hours, then transfer into a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. You can reheat these veggies straight out of the freezer (without thawing) by sautéing until heated through and crisped up. You can also reheat directly from frozen in a 425℉ preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or in the air fryer at 400F for 10 minutes.
