Grilled Yams

Grilled Yams showcase caramelized edges and a gentle, smoky sweetness as the natural sugars glaze on the hot grates. A touch of salt and a pat of butter round out the earthy flavor, making this a simple, satisfying side for cookouts or weeknight dinners.

Grilled Yams
  1. 1

    Preheat the grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. 2

    Coat yam slices with cooking spray and season with salt.

  3. 3

    Place the yam slices crosswise on the grate so they do not fall through. Cook until tender and glazed, 10 to 12 minutes per side. Serve with butter.
