Instructions:
To prepare these delightful Sweet Potato Crostini with Smoked Swordfish and Stracchino, start by boiling a pot of water. Add the sweet potatoes and cook them for approximately 20 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, drain them and carefully slice them into rounds that are about 1.5 cm thick. Afterward, peel off the skins.
Next, heat a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, place the sweet potato slices in the skillet, lightly browning both sides of each slice. This will create a crisp texture on the edges while keeping the center tender.
Once the crostini are done, transfer them to a serving platter. Spread a small amount of Stracchino cheese on half of each slice. Top with thin slices of smoked swordfish for a savory and smoky flavor contrast.
Finish the crostini by garnishing them with a generous sprinkle of freshly grated lime zest and a touch of freshly ground black pepper.
Serve your Sweet Potato Crostini with Smoked Swordfish and Stracchino immediately for a light, flavorful appetizer that’s sure to impress your guests.
