- Make sure to choose sweet, firm, and even-sized sweet potatoes for even cooking.
- Pre-cook the sweet potatoes by boiling or microwaving them until they are slightly tender but not fully cooked, making it easier to slice them.
- If you like a bit more texture, you can garnish the finished dish with toasted pecans or marshmallows.
- For a richer flavor, consider using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
- Be sure to zest the orange and juice the lemon right before cooking to retain maximum flavor and aroma.
