I discovered that sweet potatoes taste very good cooked with meat. I have cooked them with pieces of beef roast or steak, but here I cooked them with chicken breast.
This is one of those seat of pants recipes where I don’t have an exact recipe. But, here’s the basic idea.
I cut the chicken breast in chunks, and probably cooked it by itself in oil a few minutes before adding the sweet potato chunks, adding water as needed to keep it moist and not burning. I sprinkled them with onion powder and maybe a little garlic powder too, and added salt to my taste. Then I covered them with barbecue sauce (and maybe added a teaspoon or so of brown sugar to sweeten it up if it was too sour) and cooked till done. (This would also be good with pork, I think.)
I hope you try this out and enjoy it. It was delicious! :-) Try cooking sweet potatoes with beef too. I suggest adding the sweet potato chunks a little after the meat has started cooking. You don’t have to use the barbecue sauce with beef as it has a good flavor with just the sweet potatoes and some garlic and onion.
