Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F. Prepare two baking trays with oil or parchment paper.
Prep Sweet Potatoes. In a bowl, toss 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon coconut oil with the sweet potato chunks. Add smoked paprika, cumin, ancho chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly and spread out on a parchment-lined sheet pan, in a single layer.
Prep veggies. To the same bowl, add onion, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, and jalapeno if using. Toss with the remaining oil. Add salt and pepper to taste, then spread out on the second parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake the sweet potato tray on the lower rack for 10 minutes, then rotate the tray. Add the tray of onions and peppers to the middle rack and bake both trays together for another 10–15 minutes, until the peppers and onions are tender. When the peppers and onions are done, the sweet potatoes should be done as well. Test to make sure they are fork-tender.
Combine the roasted sweet potatoes and vegetables together.
Season and Taste. Add lime juice to taste, and adjust salt and pepper.

Notes

Tip: Coconut oil complements sweet potatoes or yams well. Feel free to use olive or avocado oil.

Storage: The texture is best when served immediately but leftovers are still delicious after a few days. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy for up to 4 days.

Tip: Cutting the onion with the grain exposes fewer fibers, releasing less water, allowing the onions to brown better and cook more evenly.
