Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Chipotle Orange Butter
October 19, 2020
Growing up in the '60s, my mother made canned yams that had 1 pound of butter and 1 pound of brown sugar!!!! Don't get me wrong, I loved it.
Now that I am a grownup, I prefer my sweet potatoes, less sweet and a bit spicy! This recipe for Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Chipotle Orange Butter is from Ina Garten's new cookbook called Modern Comfort Food. I love roasting sweet potatoes. There is a touch of maple syrup, orange juice and some chipotle chile in adobo sauce mixed into the butter. Orange juice brightens up the flavor. It's a winning combination. You can make the butter days ahead.
- Prep: 20 mins
- Cook: 1 hr
- Yields: 6 Servings
Directions
1Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
2Pierce the potatoes in several places with a sharp knife to prevent them from exploding in the oven. Place the potatoes on the prepared sheet pan and roast for one hour, until they are very tender when pierced with a knife.
3Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, maple syrup, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, orange zest, 1 teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper on medium speed until well mixed.
4Cut a 12 x 8-inch piece of parchment paper and place it on a board with the 12-inch edge near you. With a rubber spatula, transfer the butter to the parchment paper, forming a long strip along the edge. Using the parchment paper, roll the butter up and away from you to form a log. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
5Cut a slit in the top of each potato and squeeze the ends together to open the potatoes. Sprinkle them with salt and black pepper. Cut the chipotle butter in 12 pieces and place 2 pieces in the opening of each potato. Serve hot.
