Spicy Cajun Sweet Potato Fries
Oven-baked sweet potato fries seasoned with a bold homemade Cajun spice blend.
Spicy Cajun Sweet Potato Fries bring a bold, flavorful kick to your burger plate. These oven-baked fries combine the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes with a smoky, spicy Cajun seasoning blend that creates an addictive flavor contrast. The result is a side dish that's both healthier than traditional fries and packed with personality.
The secret to perfectly crispy sweet potato fries is coating them with a light dusting of cornstarch before baking, which helps draw out moisture and creates that coveted crunchy exterior. The homemade Cajun spice blend features paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, and oregano—ingredients that complement the sweet potato's natural caramelized notes beautifully.
These fries are perfect alongside any burger, but they're especially good with BBQ burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, or chicken burgers where the spicy-sweet combination really shines. They're also a great option for those looking for a healthier alternative to deep-fried sides.
