Preheat the grill to medium heat. In a large bowl, toss sweet potato fries with bourbon, olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Grill the fries for 5 7 minutes on each side or until tender and slightly charred, turning occasionally. In another bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and lime zest to create the Spiced Aioli. Serve the fries hot with a dollop of Spiced Aioli on top.
Chef’s Insight Experiment with different spices or spirits to create your own version of the Spiced Aioli.
Notes For an extra smoky flavor, try using hickory wood chips on the grill.
Substitutions Use rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar as a substitute for bourbon. - Replace Sriracha with your favorite hot sauce if needed.
Alternative Preparations You can bake the sweet potato fries in the oven at 425°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Alternative Methods If you don't have a grill, you can use a stovetop griddle or oven to cook the fries.
Best Storage Practice Store leftover Spiced Aioli in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Shelf Life The Spiced Aioli will last up to one week in the refrigerator.
Plating Tips Arrange the fries on a large platter, fanned out in a curve, and dot with Spiced Aioli. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
