Recently, I stopped at the store for peppers and made these three fast and healthy recipes. You can easily try them when you find a pepper sale of your own!

Chicken Fajita Sweet Potato Boats

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts
2 sweet potato, cut into strips
1 green pepper
1 red pepper
1 onion
1 packet Fajita seasoning
1 c. cheddar cheese (I used Daiya Cheddar Shreds)
Salt and Pepper

Directions

  1. Place the chicken, sweet potatoes and peppers on a sheet pan and into a 350ยฐF oven for 45-50 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes feel soft.
  2. Take out the pan and turn the oven heat up to 450ยฐF.
  3. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the inside of your potato, leaving about ยฝ inch of flesh inside of the skin. (Save what you scoop out for mashed sweet potatoes at your next meal!) Brush the inside with olive oil and dust with salt and pepper.
  4. Toss the peppers and chicken together with the Fajita seasoning.
  5. Fill the potato skins with the mixture and a generous amount of cheddar cheese and pop them back in the oven for 5 minutes or until all of the cheese has melted.
  6. Top with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.

  2. Cut the peppers in half and take the seeds out but leave the stem. Place them upside down on a baking sheet and drizzle the bottoms with olive oil and a light sprinkle of salt. Bake for 15 minutes.
  3. Take the peppers out of the oven and turn them over with a set of tongs. Careful: they will be hot!
