Hasselback Sweet Potatoes With Chipotle Cream Recipes

HASSELBACK SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Shave a thin sliver from one side of each potato to give it a flat surface to stand on while you slice it. Make thin slices into the potato about 1/16-inch thick, stopping before you cut all the way through. (Placing a chopstick on either side of the potato while you slice it can help stop the blade before it cuts all the way through.) Put each potato on a separate sheet of foil. Shape the foil around the potatoes to wrap them, but leave the tops open and exposed. Put the potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat, swirling occasionally, until browned and nutty, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Drizzle the butter mixture over the potatoes and pinch the foil together on top to seal the potato inside. Bake for 45 minutes, then let cool for a few moments. Remove the potatoes from the foil, put them on a serving platter and drizzle with the sauce leftover in each foil packet. Sprinkle with the pecans before serving.

HASSELBACK SWEET POTATOES CASSEROLE WITH CHIPOTLE

Steps:

• In a food processor jar, add chipotle, olive oil, lemon juice, maple syrup, tomato paste, garlic cloves, salt and black pepper. Pulse until smooth and everything is fine pureed. Transfer half into a small bowl and remaining into a wide large prep bowl and set aside.
• Wash and peel Sweet Potatoes. Using a mandilion slicer or food processor slicer attachment, slice all sweet potatoes to 1/8 of an inch thick slices.
• Position an Oven Rack in the middle. Set oven to preheat at 425 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small microwave safe bowl, add butter, minced garlic clove (optional), and 1 tbsp from the reserved chipotle dressing. Heat for 30 seconds at time or until just melted. Set aside.
• Transfer half of sweet potato slices into large bowl with half of dressing. Massage slices with dressing gently to evenly coat all potatoes in dressing. Stack 10 slices of sweet potatoes at a time in hand and then transfer to baking dish. Arrange in circular pattern. Repeat until all dressed sweet potatoes slices are transferred to baking dish. Repeat this step with remaining half of sweet potatoes and reserved dressing.
• Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and set to bake for 1 hour and 40 minutes.
• While sweet potatoes bake, heat a dry skillet. Add pine nuts and toast for 1 minute or until slightly golden. (don't leave any longer on heat as pine-nuts tend to burn quickly.) Set aside. In a food processor jar, add toasted pine nuts and herbs. Pulse until fine chopped.
• At 1 hour mark, carefully take the casserole out of the oven. Baste with one coat of garlic-butter mixture. To prevent overbrowning, cover the edges of pie dish with foil. Return to the oven. Repeat basting with garlic-butter once more after 15 minutes. Bake until most sweet potatoes are golden on top (slightly caramelizing). Take out, let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
• Garnish casserole with chopped nuts-herb mixture. Serve and enjoy!
