Hasselback Sweet Potatoes with Hot Honey
These Hasselback Sweet Potatoes with Hot Honey are easy to make and tasty and will taste great with just about any entree!
Ingredients
- 4-5 Slices of Bacon
- 3 Tablespoons Honey
- 1 Teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1½ Tablespoons Chives, chopped as needed
- 1½ Teaspoon Hot Sauce, more as needed
- Kosher salt, as needed
- 4 Medium sized Sweet Potatoes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- One at a time, place a potato between the handles of 2 wooden spoons. Slice each potato into 1/8-inch-thick slices; the spoon handles will prevent the knife from cutting all the way through. Place the potatoes on a foil lined sheet tray until ready to bake.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside. When cool, chop into pieces.
- Use some of the bacon grease and brush the potatoes all over the top, sides and between the slices. Then sprinkle with kosher salt.
- In the same pan with the remaing bacon grease add the honey, hot sauce and paprika and mix well. Set aside
- Roast the potatoes until they are soft, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and top with the bacon and add between the slices. Drizzle with hot honey and top with chives. Enjoy!
