Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 sweet potatoes
½ red bell pepper, sliced
½ yellow bell pepper, sliced
½ green bell pepper, sliced
½ onion, sliced
1 chicken breast
3 tablespoons mozzarella cheese, divided
olive oil
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • Using a fork, poke holes down one side of each sweet potato. Microwave for 3-5 minutes, or until softened. Let sweet potatoes cool before handling.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes in half and carve out the centers, leaving a small rim around the outside of each "boat."
  • Place sweet potato boats on a baking sheet covered in parchment paper. Add the bell peppers and onion to the other side of the baking sheet.
  • Mix the fajita seasoning ingredients together.
  • Drizzle in olive oil. Season the boats and veggies.
  • Add chicken breast on top of the veggies, drizzle in olive oil and add additional seasoning.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165˚F (75˚C). Let cool for a few minutes.
  • Shred the chicken with 2 forks and mix together with the veggies.
  • Fill up sweet potato boats and top with mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 5 more minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with your favorite toppings (we used guacamole and cilantro).
  • Enjoy!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my skins came out burnt. I think I need to adjust the cooking time.

The chicken fajita filling was a bit bland for my taste. I would add some more spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the skins came out soggy. I think I needed to cook them for a little longer.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some black beans and corn to the filling for extra flavor.

These chicken fajita sweet potato skins were a hit with my family! The sweet potato skins were crispy and flavorful, and the chicken fajita filling was delicious. I especially loved the avocado crema, which added a creamy and tangy flavor to the dish
