Grilled Sweet Potato Wedges with Dipping Sauces
Grill: 8 mins to 10 mins
Ingredients
- 6 medium sweet potatoes or russet potatoes (about 2 pounds)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt or 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Honey Sesame Sauce (recipe below)
- Creamy Chive Sauce (recipe below)
Directions
1. Scrub potatoes with a soft vegetable brush under running water. Cut each unpeeled potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half lengthwise into 4 wedges. In a covered 4-quart Dutch oven, cook potato wedges in boiling, lightly salted water for 8 minutes or until just tender. Drain and cool slightly. Place potatoes in a large bowl; drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to coat.
2. For a charcoal grill, grill potato wedges on the greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges begin to brown, turning occasionally. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place potato wedges on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.)
3. Transfer potatoes to a serving dish; serve with Honey Sesame Sauce and/or Creamy Chive Sauce. Serve immediately or at room temperature. Makes 8 servings.

These were excellent. I did the creamy chive sauce with them. I boiled these 8 minutes as directed and it was a little too much. Next time I will boil them only 6 minutes.
