Grilled Sweet Potatoes

[Mama Mangia]

GRILLED SWEET POTATOES


1 lb. sweet potato (1 large)
1 c. apple juice or cider
3 T. unsalted butter
2 t. maple syrup
Pinch ground allspice
Pinch ground cinnamon
Pinch salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper


Peel sweet potato. Cut lengthwise into 1-inch wide slices. Cook in boiling water to cover until tender when pierced (6 to 8 minutes).

In small saucepan, combine apple juice or cider, butter, maple syrup, allspice, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Heat gently until the butter melts and mixture is smooth. Continue cooking, stirring often, until mixture reduces by 1/3.

Place potato slices on grill and brush with juice mixture. Turn and baste often until they are brown on the outside and tender throughout, about 10 minutes

I love grilled sweet potatoes. I have a friend who makes them and I never got her recipe. I am going to use your recipe and invite her over for dinner. I think she will be suprised to see that I made the grilled sweet potatoes this time.
