Equipment

  • 1 10x15" glass baking dish (I actually used two dishes so the potatoes would be in a single layer; a large cookie sheet will also work)
  • 1 sharp knife to cut herbs
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 pastry brush
  • 1 spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large sweet potatoes peeled (or four small sweet potatoes)
  • 2-3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 large cloves garlic minced
  • 1 heaping tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives diced
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp. dried rosemary
  • 1 heaping tablespoon dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano

Instructions
 

  • Peel sweet potatoes and slice down into thin French fry-type wedges.
  • Place in a 10x15” glass baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Brush with 2-3 tbsp. olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
  • Measure 1/3 cup olive oil into a glass measuring cup.
  • Add garlic, parsley, chives, thyme, rosemary, basil and oregano.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Brush potatoes with garlic-Italian seasonings mixture and spread out into pan as evenly as possible.
  • Cover with foil, and bake about 30 minutes at 400°.
  • Turn potatoes over with a spatula and bake uncovered until fork tender—about 5-10 more minutes.

Notes

NOTE: You can use fresh herbs for this recipe if you have them. I would use about ¼ cup fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon of thyme, rosemary, and oregano, and about 4 large basil leaves chopped.
 
NOTE: If you are trying to eliminate extra oils, don't brush the potatoes with olive oil before adding garlic-Italian mixture.
 
NOTE: I separated the potatoes and put them in two 10x15" glass baking dishes that had been pre-sprayed with olive oil cooking spray.
