Crispy BAKED Chipotle Sweet Potato Fries – these babies are gonna be your new favorite healthy dinner side. Paired with a Honey Sriracha Aioli that you’ll want to slather on everything!
Ya’ll. Yesterday.
UNACCEPTABLE!
We got home from church, turned on the Packers vs. Falcons game and within the first 15 minutes I felt sick to my stomach.
How can you go from such an incredible hard fought game the weekend before to absolute crap the following? I mean they went to into the locker room at halftime with a score of 24-0!!!!!! Ridiculous!
I’m so sad.
And now. Neither of my teams will be in the Super Bowl and Tom Brady will. Booo! Hisss! Something is wrong with the world.
Luckily, the food situation in the world is all good. Mostly because we are starting out the week with these Sweet Potato Fries!
Who wouldn’t want Fries on a Monday!? Am I right?
It’s the best way to start off the week.
And not only are these Sweet Potato Fries baked instead of fried but they are loaded with flavor! The chipotle chili seasoning coated around each fry and then baked till they are nice and crispy. Yup, pretty much irresistible.
But the kicker, and my husbands favorite part, was the Honey Sriracha Aioli. Ya’ll I had an idea of how I wanted this aioli to taste. I started adding a little of this and a little of that and it just wasn’t working. I thought I was going to have to toss it and start over. But before I did, I added in a little more Sriracha and garlic powder and …. viola! Absolute perfection! This dipping sauce may just be the best one I’ve made so far! I actually might start putting it on a sandwiches, it’s that good!
So if you’re in need of a dynamite side dish to make with that seared chicken. This is it!
Bon Appetit friends!

Very much enjoyed these fries! Just as a note to anyone trying to cut calories, I subbed Greek Yogurt for the mayo and it was still really yummy- such a nice blend of flavors. I’m sure it’s incredible with the mayo, but that’s on my don’t list for now. Thanks so much for a great recipe!
Awesome! Thanks so much for tip Jennifer, the yogurt would give it a nice tang! 🙂
I love chipotle seasoning in this recipe! It’s really making my mouth water thinking about it and seeing these photos! This would be a great to serve on Superbowl Sunday!
The chipotle seasoning paired with the aioli is definitely drool worthy. This would totally be great to serve for the super bowl!
Sadness is the consensus for the state of WI too… But these fries would please anyone! Love how you baked them!
I’m so sad about the Pack, but next year! 🙂 Next year!
My team didn’t make it yesterday, either, but I’m excited because I have everything needed to make these fries!
woohooo… take solace in the fries like me girl! 🙂
I want to just scoop these up and pile them high on my plate! That aioli sounds fab with its sweet-and-spicy twist! Love it!
I think that’s a wise choice girl! And that aioli is awesome!
I love me some sweet potato fries and these are going on my must make list for sure!

You’re gonna love them!
This aioli sounds amazing! I need to whip up a batch of these fries asap!

Oh girl, the aioli is the bomb!
I’m sorry neither of your teams made it this year… but at least they made the playoffs? (Speaking as a fan of a team that did terribly and didn’t have much of a chance from the get-go. Sigh.) But I’m with you – the food situation is GOOD, and these sweet potato fries sound incredible. I love the chipotle twist and that aioli. Now to bake some up!
Oh… Doesn’t September seem so far away to wait for our teams to start again! At least we can indulge on these fries, right!?
