Melting Sweet Potatoes Recipes

MELTING SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the racks in the top and center positions and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the butter and olive oil in a large cast-iron or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in a single layer, then sprinkle with a good pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Cook until the first side is golden brown, about 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the broth, maple syrup, pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small liquid measuring cup until combined. Flip the potatoes carefully with tongs, then pour the broth mixture over and top with the fresh thyme.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake on the center rack until the potatoes are very tender and the broth mixture has reduced slightly, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the oven and preheat the broiler to high. Top each piece of potato with a marshmallow half, cut-side down. Broil on the top rack until the marshmallows are puffed and lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Watch closely to prevent burning.

MELTING POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Put the butter, rosemary and red pepper flakes in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals until the butter is melted, about 1 minute. Add the potatoes, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper and toss together.
• Put the potatoes in a 9-by-13-inch metal baking dish in a single layer (a glass baking dish should not be used at this temperature). Bake until the potatoes are a deep golden brown on the bottom, about 15 minutes. Flip and continue to bake until a deep golden brown on the second side, another 15 minutes. Add the chicken broth and garlic and continue to bake until the potatoes are soft and the liquid is almost completely reduced, about 15 minutes more. Transfer the potatoes to a serving platter.

• Add the potatoes, butter, cinnamon and salt to a medium bowl and toss to coat. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes. Flip the potatoes, then drizzle with the maple syrup and continue to bake until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on the outside but soft on the inside, an additional 15 to 18 minutes. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with the pecans and chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel the potatoes and slice off the ends. Cut into 1-inch slices. Season both sides of the potatoes generously with kosher salt and pepper.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet (or other heavy-duty, ovenproof skillet) over medium-high heat. Add the oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter. Sear the potatoes on one side until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the potatoes and add the broth, rosemary and garlic. Cut the remaining 6 tablespoons butter into cubes and scatter on top of the potatoes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Garnish with flaky salt and spoon the pan sauce all over the potatoes.

• Roast in the preheated oven until slightly golden, about 15 minutes.
• Flip potatoes over and roast for another 15 minutes.
