Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Orange Marmalade and Balsamic Glaze: A Sweet and Savory Delight
Indulge in a symphony of flavors with our roasted sweet potatoes, a culinary masterpiece that blends the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes with the tangy-sweetness of orange marmalade and the richness of balsamic glaze. This delectable dish is a perfect balance of flavors, textures, and nutrients, making it a wholesome and satisfying meal or side.
The recipe offers two irresistible variations: a classic roasted sweet potato recipe and a tantalizing glazed sweet potato recipe. The classic roasted sweet potatoes are simply seasoned with salt, pepper, and olive oil, resulting in a crispy exterior and a tender, melt-in-your-mouth interior.
The glazed sweet potatoes take the experience to a whole new level with a luscious glaze made from orange marmalade, balsamic vinegar, and a hint of Dijon mustard. The glaze caramelizes during roasting, creating a glossy, flavorful coating that perfectly complements the roasted sweet potatoes.
Both variations are incredibly easy to prepare and require minimal ingredients, making them perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings. They can be served as a main course, a side dish, or even as a healthy snack.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
- Either scrub the sweet potatoes clean and pat dry, or peel them (I generally peel mine). To slice, use a sharp chef's knife to cut them into 1-inch thick rounds. Then, cut up each round to make 1-inch cubes. The "cubes" won't be perfectly even, but that's ok.
- Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil on top. If using, sprinkle the chili pepper or several twists of freshly ground black pepper on top, followed by the salt. Toss until the sweet potatoes are all evenly coated in oil, and arrange them in a single layer.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, tossing halfway, until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelizing at the edges. Serve while warm. Leftover sweet potatoes will keep in the refrigerator, covered, for about 4 days. Gently reheat in the microwave or oven if desired.

CITRUS-GLAZED SWEET POTATOES
These candied sweet potatoes work as a side dish for any dinner or holiday celebration by balancing citrusy sweet and savory flavors - and they also produce top-notch leftovers. Right out of the oven or the fridge, they are sure to add a pleasantly tart note to any meal. The braising liquid thickens as the tubers cook, resulting in a tangy glaze that coats every bite. Its acidity also helps the sweet potatoes stay intact with a slight bite even as they soften. The thinly sliced orange zest becomes tender and develops a marmalade-like taste. The shiny strips make for a beautiful garnish, along with the syrupy pan sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees (see Tip). Use a vegetable peeler to peel strips of zest off 2 oranges. Cut the strips into thin matchsticks using a sharp knife and transfer to a large bowl. Juice all the oranges, the lemon and limes into the bowl for 1 1/4 cups juice. Whisk in the brown sugar, salt, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and black pepper until the sugar dissolves.
- Generously peel the sweet potatoes, removing the skin and the tougher layer of flesh just beneath. If your sweet potatoes are larger than 2 inches in diameter, halve or quarter lengthwise. Cut into 1-inch-thick rounds or pieces, add to the citrus mixture and toss to coat.
- Transfer the sweet potatoes and juice mixture to a 9-by-13-inch shallow glass or ceramic baking dish. Dot the top with the butter. Bake, stirring every 20 to 30 minutes to cook and coat evenly, until the sweet potatoes are tender and glazed, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. A paring knife should slide through the potatoes easily and the glaze should be the consistency of syrup.
- Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving. The dish can be made ahead and cooled, then wrapped tightly and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350-degree oven, covered with foil, or in a microwave, covered with a microwave-safe cover or plastic wrap.
