Skinny Cajun Sweet Potato Fries with Garlic Cheese Sauce.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Step 2

Place the sweet potatoes on a large baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Add the flour, creole seasoning, thyme, paprika, cumin, cayenne, salt + pepper. Gently toss with your hands or two spatulas to evenly coat. Bake for 15-20 minutes, then flip and bake for 15-20 minutes more. You want the sweet potatoes to be tender, but crisp. Serve with the cheese sauce (below).

Step 3

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Next add the garlic, cook for 30 seconds then add the milk. Toss the shredded cheese with the flour in a small bowl. Add the cheese to the warm milk and stir until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm until ready to serve. Serve over the fries.
