SALT-RUBBED SWEET POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES



Salt-Rubbed Sweet Potatoes With Sour Cream and Chives image

If you've ever thought the somewhat-dull sweet potato could use some punch, try covering it in a layer of salt before you bake it: The salt flavors and tenderizes the skin, leaving a crisp exterior that begs for the cooling tang of sour cream. Leave the potatoes a little damp after you've scrubbed them clean so that you'll have an easier time getting the salt to stick.

LOADED TWICE-BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Loaded Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes image

They say your greatest strength is also your biggest weakness; the same starchy sweetness that makes this tuber such a popular holiday side dish also can lead to palate fatigue. That's why I've enlisted bacon, lime, jalapeno, green onions, and sharp Cheddar to make these twice-baked sweet potatoes more addictive than in any Thanksgiving past. You can prep them ahead of time and then bake when you're ready to serve.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Sweet Potatoes

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 orange-fleshed sweet potatoes
½ tablespoon olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package bacon, diced
⅓ cup sliced green onions
¼ cup diced jalapeno peppers
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste
cayenne pepper to taste
½ cup shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons creme fraiche
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet. Prick with a knife and drizzle with olive oil; rub to coat. Space sweet potatoes evenly apart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until completely tender, about 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add bacon to a pan over medium heat. Cook and stir until bacon starts to get crispy and the fat turns foamy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add green onions and jalapeno; cook and stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Let sweet potatoes cool until safe to handle. Leave the oven on. Cut off the top 1/3 of each potato, holding the knife at a 45-degree angle. Scoop out sweet potato flesh from both the top and bottom halves, leaving at least 1/4 inch flesh in the bottoms to make the shells.
  • Season the sweet potato flesh with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Add 1/2 cup cheese, creme fraiche, and lime juice. Mash with a potato masher. Add the bacon mixture and mix until combined. Spoon filling into the sweet potato shells. Lightly scatter remaining cheese on top.
  • Bake until heated through and tops have started to brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • For perfectly baked sweet potatoes, choose medium-sized potatoes that are firm and have smooth skin. Avoid potatoes with blemishes or bruises.
  • To prevent the sweet potatoes from drying out, wrap them tightly in foil before baking. This will help them steam and cook evenly.
  • If you want crispy sweet potato skins, brush them with melted butter or olive oil before baking. You can also sprinkle them with salt and pepper for added flavor.
  • The maple-jalapeno sour cream is a great way to add a sweet and spicy kick to your sweet potatoes. To make it, simply whisk together maple syrup, sour cream, jalapeno pepper, lime juice, and cilantro. You can adjust the amount of jalapeno pepper to taste.
  • Baked sweet potatoes can be served as a side dish or as a main course. They are also a great addition to salads, soups, and stews.

Conclusion:

Baked sweet potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and they can be easily customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain, with butter and salt, or with a variety of toppings, baked sweet potatoes are a great option for a healthy and satisfying meal.
