Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Cut the potatoes in thirds - or if you have very large sweet potatoes, even 4 or 5 pieces. I like to leave the skin on, but feel free to peel them!
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the potatoes in a large pot and fill it with cold water. Bring the water to a boil. Boil the potatoes until they are just barely fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Strain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.
  • Brush a baking sheet with 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil. Place the potatoes on the sheet. Use your hand or the bottom of a glass to smash them once, trying to keep them in one piece.
  • Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the potatoes. Sprinkle the potatoes with the salt, pepper, chili powder and garlic powder.
  • Place the sheet in the oven and roast the potatoes for 25 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  • Remove and drizzle with the chili garlic sauce. Top with a crumbling of feta cheese and herbs. Serve immediately.
