Loaded sweet potato 🍠 🥑 🍅🍋🟩
Makes 4
Ingredients:
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 2 avocados
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 slice red onion, finely diced
- 1 brown onion, finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 bunch parsley
- 1 cup cheese
- 500g chicken breast, minced
- 400g tin black beans
- Sour cream
- Lime
- Olive oil
To make:
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. Part-cook the sweet potatoes: Pierce each potato with a fork, then microwave for 5 minutes or until just tender. Cut in half and transfer to a baking tray and bake for 14–20 minutes, or until the skins are crisp and the edges are lightly browned.
3. Prepare the chicken filling: Finely dice the onion and heat a drizzle of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened. Stir in the garlic and chicken mince, breaking it up with a spoon. Season with ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp cumin, all-purpose seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the mince is browned and fully cooked through the mix in the black beans.
4. Make the guacamole: Mash the avocados in a bowl, then add a squeeze of lime juice and a pinch of salt.
5. Prepare the salsa: Finely dice the tomatoes and 1 slice of red onion. Toss together with chopped parsley.
6. Grate approximately 1 cup of cheese
7. Assemble: Halve the cooked sweet potatoes. Fill each with the chicken mixture, then add salsa and cheese. Top with guacamole and a dollop of sour cream.
