Curried Chicken and Sweet Potatoes image

This chicken and sweet potato dish is a delicious combination of sweet and savory flavors. I like to add a bit more spice. Make sure to keep the sweet potato chunks large so they keep their integrity over the long cooking time. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

I'm not a huge fan of curry, but this dish was surprisingly good! The chicken was so tender and the sweet potatoes were perfectly cooked. I would definitely make this again.
