Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, aiming for approximately 400°F.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1½-inch thick wedges.

Place the seasoned sweet potatoes directly on the preheated grill, cut side down.
Grill for about 8 minutes, then turn each wedge every 2-3 minutes.
While the sweet potatoes are grilling, prepare the herby yogurt dressing in a blender.
Once the sweet potatoes are charred and tender, remove them from the grill.
Drizzle the herby yogurt dressing over the grilled sweet potatoes and serve.
