By á-1955

Ingredients

• * 3 sweet potatoes, unpeeled
• * Kosher salt
• * 2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest
• * Pinch of cayenne pepper
• * 1/4 cup canola oil
• * Freshly ground pepper
• * 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

Preparation

Step 1

Parcook the potatoes: Place in a pot of water and boil until fork-tender; let cool. Slice each potato lengthwise into eighths.


Preheat a grill to medium or place a cast-iron grill pan over medium heat. Mix 1 tablespoon salt, the lime zest and cayenne in a small bowl.


Brush the potato wedges with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown on all sides (including the skin) and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter; immediately season with the salt mixture and sprinkle with cilantro.
