Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss 2 large sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, with 2 tbsp harissa paste, 3 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp fresh thyme, and 1 tsp cumin. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes until golden and tender.
  2. Step 2: Add 1.5 cups drained chickpeas and 1 cup thawed corn kernels to the sheet, tossing to coat. Roast for 10-12 minutes until the corn is charred and the chickpeas are heated through.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk 2 tbsp tahini with 1 tbsp lime juice and 1 tbsp water to make a drizzle. Serve the roasted hash in bowls, drizzled with the tahini-lime sauce and garnished with additional thyme.
