Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a mixing bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
-
Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly crispy, stirring halfway through.
-
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Sauté the onion until it becomes translucent, then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
-
Add the drained black beans to the skillet with the onion and garlic. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until the beans are heated through, about 5-7 minutes. Use a fork to mash some of the beans slightly for a thicker texture.
-
Warm the tortillas either by heating them in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds.
-
To assemble the tacos, spoon a generous amount of the spicy black bean mixture onto each warm tortilla. Top with the roasted sweet potatoes, diced avocado, fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and a drizzle of hot sauce.
-
Serve the Spicy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tacos immediately while warm and enjoy the explosion of flavors with every bite.
