Prep Time 10min, Cook Time 20 min
Ingredients
- 1 large cooked Sweet Potato
- 1 pound lean ground beef/bison/turkey
- 1 small Jalapeño finely diced (keep your fingers out of your eyes)
- 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp. Cumin
- 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 F. Prepare the sweet potato by washing the outside well then slice horizontally into thick slices.
- Place the sweet potato on a medium baking sheet. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place in the oven and bake at 425 F for 20 minutes (flipping them at the half way mark).
- While the sweet potato is baking, heat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
- Place the ground beef in a large bowl with jalapeño, cumin and garlic powder. Using your hands, break up the meat and mix the ingredients together.
- Form the mixture into 4 patties.
- Place on the grill and cook 4 minutes then flip and cook another 4 minutes for a medium-well slider.
- Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and sliders from the grill.
