  1. After cutting up sweet potatoes, toss in a bowl with all the above ingredients.
  2. Lay out ingredients on foil (at least 1-1.5 feet long).  
  3. Cover ingredients with another layer of foil, pinching together both foil layers to make a closed pack.  Put small slits on top to vent.
  4. Grill on medium heat on top rack for approximately 15 minutes until sweet potatoes are soft and cooked.
