3 lbs Sweet Potatoes, Peeled
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1 tsp salt
1 tsp orange zest, grated
1/4 tsp black pepper

Boil sweet potatoes in water until tender; drain. Cool slightly, then cut into 1/4-inch slices. Arrange the slices in a greased, broiler proof 13x9-inch baking dish, overlapping slightly. In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add brown sugar, salt, orange zest, pepper, orange juice and vanilla; stirring until combined. Heat, but do not allow to boil. Remove from heat and brush sauce evenly over potato slices. Broil 6 inches from heat until
golden, about 6 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle with pecans. Makes 6 servings.
