Chipotle Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potato Skins

potatoes

olive oil

chicken breasts (I used boneless and skinless)

salt (or

tsp pepper (or

lime juice

garlic (minced)

chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (chopped)

tsp basil (dried)

tsp cumin

tsp chili powder

spinach (frozen, thawed)

white cheddar cheese (shredded)

cilantro (chopped, for garnish)

Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.

Prick sweet potatoes with a fork all around. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for about an hour or until fork tender.

Place the chicken in a baking dish and rub with a tablespoon of olive oil, salt and pepper. Place in the oven with the potatoes and bake for 30 minutes or until cooked through. Allow to cool then shred the chicken with a fork or your hands.&nbsp;

When the sweet potatoes are done cut in half and allow to cool.

In a medium size bowl combine the olive oil, lime juice, garlic, chopped chipotle pepper, basil, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper. Set aside.

If there is liquid in the spinach, make sure you squeeze out all the excess liquid. Toss the spinach and shredded chicken together, set aside and keep warm.

Turn the oven up to 400 degrees. Remove the flesh out of the sweet potato, leaving a medium size layer of flesh inside with the peel so that it can stand up on its own and place in a baking dish. You can use the flesh for another use or you can mix it in with the chicken and spinach. Brush the skins with with a little of the chipotle sauce and bake for 5-10 minutes until nice and crisp.&nbsp;

While the skins bake add the chipotle sauce to the chicken and spinach and toss.&nbsp;

Remove the skins from the oven and stuff with the chicken mixture, top with shredded cheese and bake for 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the skins are hot and crisp.

Serve with fresh chopped cilantro.

These healthy chipotle sweet potato skins are stuffed with a chipotle-sweet potato filling, black beans, corn, and topped with cheese.

Healthy Chipotle Sweet Potato Skins

sweet potatoes

corn,

black beans,

butter

yellow onion, chopped

INDIVIDUAL chipotle peppers

light cream cheese

sour cream or Greek yogurt

salt

cilantro, roughly chopped

shredded cheese (Pepperjack, Cheddar, Colby Jack… anything will work)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake the sweet potatoes for 45-60 minutes.

While sweet potatoes are baking, place corn in a heavy cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat with no butter or oil. Sprinkle with salt and other Mexican seasoning (as much as you want &#8211; thinking taco seasoning or a mix of chili powder and cumin). Do not stir! Let corn roast for several minutes before stirring. Let it roast for a few more minutes before stirring again. Continue this for about 10 minutes, until corn is browned and roasted on the outside. Set aside in a small bowl with the black beans.

Saute the onion in the butter over medium heat until soft and translucent. Set aside.

Remove sweet potatoes from the oven when fork-tender. Let cool for 5-10 minutes. Cut the sweet potatoes in half. Scrape the flesh of the sweet potatoes out, leaving the skins intact. Sometimes leaving a thin layer of potato inside of the skins helps them hold together better.

Mix the flesh of the sweet potatoes with the cream cheese, sour cream, chipotle peppers, and salt. You can use a mixer or just a spoon, depending on how soft the potatoes are. When well-mixed, gently stir in the black beans, roasted corn, sauteed onions, and cilantro.

Scoop the filling into the skins and top each with 1 tablespoon shredded cheese. Broil for about 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Ohhhh this looks so good.  Thanks for sharing and pinning :D  Must try!!!

I had the ingredients to make the spinach/garbanzo bean version of this, but had to make this instead! It was AMAZING!
