Description
A vegan appetizer for your tailgate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tbsp high-heat oil such as avocado or coconut oil
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 1 large sweet potato, spiralized or shredded
- Salt, to taste
- Smoked paprika, to taste
- ⅓ cup BBQ sauce
- Slider buns
- Apple Slaw
Instructions
- To caramelize the onions, melt the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, until shimmering. Add the onion, and stir them gently to coat with the fat.
- Cook the onions, checking on them every 5 minutes. Stir the onion and scrape up any fond that forms on the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Exact cooking times will vary based on liquid and sugar content, but continue to cook and stir as the onions caramelize. Add water to the pan if the onion starts to brown too quickly.
- Once the onion is dark and sweet smelling, fold in the sweet potato. Season generously with salt and smoked paprika, and cook until the sweet potatoes are slightly softened. Add the BBQ sauce and stir to incorporate.
- Serve the BBQ sweet potatoes on a slider bun, and top with slaw.
