Peeled and diced, browned with onions? Is this a bad idea?

I just never think of sweet potatoes going with onions. I hope
someone else can answer this.

Not a bad idea at all. Love sweet potatoes in any shape or form,
even with onions.
We sometimes roast sweet potatoes and red onion wedges with chicken
thighs. Really good.

It works just fine imho! Your tastes may vary of course, and that's ok.

Since onions caramelize fairly easily, I think they go well with sweet
potatoes. A couple weeks ago I made shredded-sweet-potato pancakes with
shallots, powdered California chiles, and honey-sweetened yogurt as a kind
of "drifting toward dessert" course, and that turned out quite well.

cyber****'s idea could work, though I'd take care to cut the onion into
pieces which were about the same size as the sweet potato dice; the texture
would be better that way, and the vegetables would cook at the same rate.
The greater concern would be how the dish tasted after cyber**** cooked it
over a barrel of burning garbage.
