  • 25–30 min
  • 425°F

Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the cubed 2 lb sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes with 2 tbsp olive oil extra-virgin, ½ tsp garlic powder, ¼ tsp cayenne pepper, and ½ tsp fine sea salt in a large mixing bowl until evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet — don't crowd them or they'll steam instead of roast. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the edges are caramelized and the centers are fork-tender.

While the 2 lb sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes roast, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 1 ¼ lb lean ground beef and diced white onion. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spatula, for 5–6 minutes until the beef is browned and the onion is softened. Drain any excess fat if needed.

Drizzle everything with 3 tbsp hot honey (store-bought or homemade (honey + red pepper flakes)), then finish with a pinch of red pepper flakes and fresh fresh chives or parsley chopped or 2 tbsp parsley.
