List of Ingredients




3 medium sweet potatoes
6 thin slices fresh pineapple, cut in half
1/2 cup thin sliced red onion (can substitute with a good sweet onion such as vidalias or walla walla sweets)
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
heavy duty aluminum foil
parchment paper

Recipe



For each portion, tear off the aluminum foil into a 12 inch square piece, line with similiar size piece of parchment.

Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 1/4 inch slices. Arrange 3-4 slices in a line alternating with pineapple. Sprinkle onion slices and 1 teaspoon cilantro over all. Dab with 1 teaspoon butter. Fold parchment over sweet potatoes like you would a present. Fold aluminum foil in a similiar manner, sealing end to keep juices and flavor inside.

Place packets seam side up around edge of medium hot coals and rotate occasionally to cook evenly. Check for doneness in about 10 minutes. Potatoes should still have texture, do not overcook.

Open foil, remove parchment packet and place on plate. Drizzle juices over.

Serves 6.
