Ingredients

  • 2 tbsps. olive oil divided
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and diced into small cubes

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Balasmic glaze for drizzling

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and cook about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are fork tender and slightly browned.
