Creating Chili Lime Grilled Sweet Potato Wedges is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prep the Sweet Potatoes: Begin by scrubbing the sweet potatoes under running water. Peel them if you prefer, but keeping the skin adds texture.
2. Cut the Wedges: Slice each sweet potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into wedges (approximately 1-inch thick).
3. Make the Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
4. Marinate the Wedges: Add the sweet potato wedges to the bowl and toss them in the marinade until evenly coated. If possible, let them marinate for at least 30 minutes to amplify the flavor.
5. Preheat the Grill: While the wedges are marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).
6. Grill the Wedges: Once the grill is hot, place the sweet potato wedges cut-side down on the grill. Grill for about 10-12 minutes, then flip them over and continue to grill for another 10-12 minutes or until they are fork-tender and have nice grill marks.
7. Check for Doneness: Use a fork to pierce the wedges; they should feel soft and easily give under pressure.
8. Remove and Garnish: Remove the grilled wedges from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro and additional lime wedges on the side.
9. Serve: Enjoy the Chili Lime Grilled Sweet Potato Wedges hot off the grill!
