Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Toss them in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill them for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from heat and place on paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cool, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Pepper Jack Hollandaise

    In a small saucepan, melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking continuously. Stir in 1/4 cup of shredded pepper jack cheese until melted and smooth.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, layer the grilled sweet potatoes, crumbled bacon, sliced avocado, and pickled red onions. Drizzle the pepper jack hollandaise over the top and sprinkle with hemp seeds.
