Hawaiian Sweet Potato Packets
A
slightly sweet dish that is perfect with lean ham or pork chops.
3 medium sweet
potatoes
6 thin slices fresh pineapple, cut in half
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 tablespoons light butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Heavy-duty aluminum foil
Parchment paper
For each portion, tear off the aluminum foil into a 12-inch square piece.
Line with a similar sized piece of parchment. Peel sweet potatoes and
cut into 1/4 inch slices. Arrange 3 to 4 slices in a line alternating
with pineapple. Sprinkle red onion slices and 1 teaspoon cilantro over
slices. Dab with 1/2 teaspoon light butter. Fold parchment over sweet
potatoes like you would a present. Fold aluminum foil in a similar manner,
sealing ends to keep juices and flavor inside.
Place the double wrapped packets seam-side-up around edge of medium hot
coals and rotate to cook evenly. Check for doneness in about 10 minutes.
Potatoes should still have texture; do not overcook. Open aluminum foil,
remove parchment packet and place on plate or, with a spatula, carefully
remove and transfer to plate. Drizzle juices over sweet potatoes.
