This roasted spicy jerk sweet potatoes recipe is an addictive sweet and spicy vegetarian side dish that’s great any time of the year.

We love all types of sweet potatoes, but I thought they would be really tasty roasted with some of the Jamaican jerk seasoning I just made. The potatoes turned out crispy on the edges, creamy inside, and addictively sweet & spicy! I paired these delicious spicy sweet potatoes with pork chops, a huge salad, and some dinner rolls. These spicy jerk sweet potatoes make an excellent side dish for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
