Ingredients

4 servings

4 medium sweet potatoes, washed and cut in half lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
sprinkle of salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, thinly sliced (or 1 teaspoon onion powder)
1 lb . ground chicken
1 heaping tablespoon taco seasoning (about half a packet, I use Siete mild)
1/2 cup salsa (I like Siete casera salsa roja, or Mateo’s)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (depends on taco seasoning, adjust to taste)
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup mayo
1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (taste and adjust)
2 -3 tablespoons water
Avocado, cut into chunks
Cilantro, chopped
Pickled onions
Something crunchy, like Mexican chili crisp or crushed pistachios

Steps

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Brush or drizzle all sides of the sweet potatoes with oil; place face-down on a sheet pan. Sprinkle top side with salt.
Bake for 20 minutes. Use a spatula to gently lift one and check for doneness (you want to preserve that caramelized surface area). Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes as needed to cook through and caramelize the bottom side.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion; sauté until soft and fragrant. Add chicken and taco seasoning; brown, breaking up with a spatula, until cooked through.
Add salsa and salt to the chicken; sauté for another 1-2 minutes. Cover to keep warm until you’re ready to serve.
Whisk all sauce ingredients until smooth. Taste and adjust.
Cut avocado, cilantro, onions, nuts or seeds for topping.
I stack in this order: sweet potato, then sauce, then chicken, then toppings. Possibly more sauce on top. So, so good.
