Ingredients
  

For the Sweet Potato Wedges:

2 large sweet potatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon sea salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

For the Zesty Aioli:

½ cup mayonnaise

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 garlic clove, minced

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

¼ teaspoon sea salt

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into wedges, about 1/2 inch thick for even roasting.

      Season the Wedges: In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato wedges with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Toss until the wedges are evenly coated.

        Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they have space in between for optimal crispiness.

          Bake the Wedges: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

            Make the Zesty Aioli: While the sweet potato wedges bake, prepare the aioli. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and sea salt until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

              Serve: Once your sweet potato wedges are done, remove them from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve them hot alongside the zesty aioli for dipping. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.

                Enjoy your deliciously crispy baked sweet potato wedges with a tangy aioli dip!
