These Mediterranean smashed sweet potatoes are coated in a savory garlic butter with Greek herbs and Parmesan, delivering rich, comforting flavor in every bite. A drizzle of balsamic glaze adds a sweet-tangy contrast that makes this side dish irresistible.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Wash and dry sweet potatoes. Prick each potato 4 to 6 times with a fork. Microwave on a plate until just tender, flipping halfway through, about 5 minutes.
- Step 2
Meanwhile preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch-thick slices. Place sliced sweet potatoes on the prepared sheet and gently smash each to about 1/2-inch-thick using a glass.
- Step 3
In a small skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, 30 to 60 seconds. Stir in Greek seasoning, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Step 4
Brush or spoon the garlic butter over each smashed potato. Drizzle with olive oil.
- Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden and slightly crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove potatoes from the oven.
- Step 6
Sprinkle with Parmesan and thyme. Drizzle with balsamic glaze just before serving.
