Time 1h35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large sweet potatoes
2 teaspoons olive oil
salt to taste
6 ounces ground chorizo
½ cup diced onion
1 poblano pepper, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
2 eggs
¼ cup shredded pepperjack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Coat sweet potatoes with olive oil and season with salt; place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until sweet potatoes are tender, about 1 hour. Cool until easily handled.
  • Cook and stir chorizo, onion, poblano pepper, and garlic in a skillet over medium-high heat until chorizo is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir cilantro into chorizo mixture.
  • Slice tops of cooled sweet potatoes horizontally and scoop out some of the flesh, creating "boats" with the peels and remaining flesh. Spoon chorizo mixture into "boats", forming a well in the middle. Crack 1 egg into each well and top with pepperjack cheese. Place boats on the baking sheet.
  • Bake in the oven until egg whites are set and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
