Glazed Sweet Potatoes

Categories: Vegetables- Potatoes

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs. sweet potatoes, peeled
• 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 2 Tbsp. butter
• 2 Tbsp. dry white wine

Directions

1. Place sweet potatoes in a pot of water, to cover. Turn the heat up and bring the pot to a boil, adding the salt and lime juice. Simmer briskly for 35 to 40 minutes, until just tender, but not mushy, when pierced with a fork. Drain and rinse in cool water so that they stop cooking, and cool enough to be handled. Cut into 1/2-inch slices.
2. Arrange the slices in an ovenproof baking dish. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Dot each slice with butter; sprinkle the wine over the top.
3. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a preheated 350 degrees oven. Serve right away with the fried chicken while still hot.
