Sweet Potato Wedges with Chipotle Recipe
Sweet potato wedges with chipotle prove that fries can glow-up.
They’re smoky, spicy, slightly sweet, and make boring side dishes feel personally attacked.
These golden beauties crisp outside, stay tender inside, and bring just the right amount of heat to keep things exciting.
The chipotle adds sass, while the sweet potato whispers, “I’m healthier than fries, but let’s not brag too hard.”
Perfect for weeknights, game nights, or when you need food that tastes like you made an effort without actually trying.
