Method
- Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, add chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, paprika, ground cumin, seasoned salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Peel the sweet potatoes and chop them into bite-sized chunks. Toss the potatoes with olive oil and 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons of the seasoning mixture until well coated, then bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven, toss the sweet potatoes, and cook for another 15 minutes. Remove, toss again, and if needed, cook for another 5–10 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.
- Once sweet potatoes are cooked, add the drained and rinsed black beans, drained corn, and 1 more teaspoon of the seasoning mixture. Toss everything on the tray to warm the beans and corn.
- For the cilantro lime rice or quinoa, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Stir in butter and rice; return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is cooked through and tender.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon lime zest, 2 tablespoons lime juice, cilantro, and salt/pepper to taste.
- To make the sauce, combine sour cream, 1/2 teaspoon lime zest, 3 tablespoons lime juice, hot sauce, and 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of the remaining spice mixture. Whisk until smooth.
- In bowls, add rice (or quinoa) as a base. Top with sweet potatoes, corn, and black bean mixture. Add desired toppings such as avocado, tomatoes, and additional cilantro. Drizzle sauce over or serve as a side. Squeeze fresh lime on top and enjoy immediately.
