21. Skillet Sweet Potatoes With Cilantro
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs. sweet potatoes
- 3 Tbsp. oil (olive or avocado)
- ½ onion (sweet or white), finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 ½ tsp. salt, to taste
- ½ tsp. black pepper, to taste
- 3 Tbsp. green onions, finely chopped
- 3 Tbsp. cilantro, finely chopped
Instructions
- Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Peel and discard the skin from the potatoes using a vegetable peeler, then cut into ½-1” cubes. The smaller the cubes, the faster they will cook. You should have about 5 cups of cubes.
- Sauté the Potatoes: Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the cubed sweet potatoes. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring halfway through.
- Add the Onion and Garlic: Push the sweet potatoes to the side of the skillet, then add the remaining tablespoon of oil along with the onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30-60 seconds until fragrant.
- Season and Serve: Add salt and black pepper, then mix the onions and garlic with the sweet potatoes. Cover the skillet with a lid and continue cooking for another 8-10 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Serve with chopped green onions and cilantro.
