• 2 sprigs sage • 2 quarts low-sodium chicken stock • 1/4 cup orange juice and 1 tbsp zest • 3/4 cup pistachios • 2 scallions • 2 tbsp mint leaves • Pinch cayenne pepper • 1/2 cup olive oil

DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 300°F. Toss sweet potato with 4 tablespoons vegetable oil and salt. Spread sweet potato on 2 rimmed baking sheets and bake for 1 hour.

In a large pot, heat remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
