Grilled Stuffed Sweet Potatoes Recipes

GRILLED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Divide the sweet potato cubes in half, and place each half in the center of a rectangle of aluminum foil. Top each portion with about half of the butter. Sprinkle about half of the brown sugar, cumin, and cayenne pepper over each portion. Season with salt and pepper. Fold the corners of the aluminum foil together and seal to form a pouch around each portion.
• Cook on the preheated grill, turning pouches every 10 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Microwave the sweet potatoes until just starting to soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool, then slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
• Whisk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, the cumin, chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the potato slices and gently toss to coat. Transfer to the grill and cook until charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
• Mix the cilantro, remaining 1/4 cup vegetable oil, lime zest and juice and chipotle in a bowl; season with salt. Thin with more lime juice if needed. Spoon the dressing over the sweet potatoes.

GRILLED STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat: For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes, turn off one of the middle burners and leave the remaining burners at medium high. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. Replenish the charcoal as needed. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
• Grill the sweet potatoes until cooked through but still holding their shape, about 50 minutes. Let cool until they can be handled, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat and cook, swirling often, until it melts and turns golden brown, about 4 minutes.
• Cut the potatoes in half and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; keep the skins intact. Add the brown butter, cream, sugar, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the flesh and mash with a potato masher until smooth.
• Put the potato skins in a grill basket, spoon the filling back into the skins and top each with 2 marshmallows. Do not put the basket lid back on the grill basket. Put the grill basket on the grill, cover the grill and cook until the filling is hot and bubbling around the edges and the marshmallows are golden, about 10 minutes. Let cool about 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Prick sweet potatoes several times with fork; place on paper towel in microwave. Microwave on High 8 to 10 minutes, turning potatoes over once halfway through cooking, just until potatoes are almost tender. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop pulp into medium bowl, leaving a 1/4-inch layer in each half. Mash pulp well. Stir in 2 tablespoons butter, the marmalade and salt. Spoon mixture into potato shells.
• When grill is heated, place potatoes on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill over medium coals; close grill or cover with tent of foil. Cook 8 to 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Top with butter before serving.
