Rosemary and Garlic Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Onions

Oven roasting concentrates the delicious flavour of sweet potatoes, making this a wonderful partner for roast chicken or pork. Quick, easy and totally addictive.

Ingredients
4-5 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into thick wedges (about 2 lbs/1kg) 
1 large onion, peeled and cut lengthwise into thick wedges 1
2 tbsp Bertolli Olive Oil 30 mL
2 cloves garlic, minced 2
2 tbsp fresh rosemary leaves, chopped (or 1 tbsp/15 mL dried) 30 mL
1/2 tsp salt 2 mL
1/4 tsp black pepper 1 mL 

Directions
Preheat the oven to 425*F (220*C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with sides or shallow roasting pan.

In a large bowl, toss together the sweet potatoes, onions, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper. Spread out onto the prepared baking sheet or roasting pan – make sure the pan is large enough so the vegetables are in a single layer. 

Place in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, turning them over once or twice, until browned and tender.
