What Makes This Recipe So Great

These fries are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The tangy, spicy flavor of Tajin® adds a delicious twist. Plus, using an air fryer makes them healthier and quick to prepare.

Cooking Pointers

- Cut the sweet potatoes evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
- Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking for even crispiness.
- Lightly coat the fries with oil to help the seasoning stick and to get a better crunch.

Directions

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes. While it’s warming up, give the fryer basket a quick spray with some cooking spray to keep the fries from sticking. In a big bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with a drizzle of avocado oil until they’re nicely coated. Then sprinkle on about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the chili-lime seasoning and mix everything together so the fries get evenly seasoned. Place the fries in the air fryer basket—if you have a lot, it’s best to cook them in batches so they crisp up well. Cook the fries for around 8 to 9 minutes, shaking the basket or flipping them halfway through to make sure they brown evenly. While the fries are cooking, whisk together some mayonnaise, lime juice, and a pinch of chili-lime seasoning in a small bowl to make a tasty dipping sauce. Serve the crispy fries hot with the dipping sauce and some lime wedges on the side for squeezing over.

Best Foods To Serve With This

Serve these fries with a cool dipping sauce like avocado crema or a simple lime mayo. They also pair well with grilled chicken or fish for a satisfying meal.

Leftover Tips

Store leftover fries in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the air fryer to keep them crispy instead of using a microwave.
