Sweet roasted potatoes meet warm harissa spice and fruity Red Apple Balsamic in this easy seasonal side dish.

Serves 4–6 | Prep: 15 minutes | Cook: 30–35 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 2 tablespoons EVOO’licious Harissa EVOO

  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons EVOO’licious Red Apple Balsamic

  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or rosemary, chopped

  • ¼ cup toasted pecans (optional)

  • Crumbled goat cheese or feta (optional)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Toss the sweet potatoes with Harissa EVOO, salt and pepper. Spread them in a single layer.

  3. Roast for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through, until tender with caramelized edges.

  4. Drizzle the roasted sweet potatoes with Red Apple Balsamic and toss gently.

  5. Return to the oven for 3–5 minutes, watching carefully as the glaze caramelizes.

  6. Sprinkle with fresh herbs. Add pecans and cheese, if desired, and serve warm.

EVOO’licious Tip:

For a sweeter glaze, add one teaspoon of maple syrup. For more heat, finish with an extra drizzle of Harissa EVOO.
