Loaded Baked Sweet Potato
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 tbsp olive oil (optional, helps the seasoning stick)
Salt & black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp President butter
½ cup grated The English Company White Mild Cheddar Cheese
½ package Melo Pechunuggets
¼ cup sour cream
2 tbsp chopped fresh chives
2 tbsp chopped tomatoes
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Wash and dry the sweet potatoes. Using a knife or fork , poke holes all over each potato.
- Lightly rub with olive oil if using, then season the outside generously with salt and black pepper.
- Place on a lined baking tray and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a knife slides easily through the centre.
- About 15 minutes before the potatoes are done, cook the Melo chicken chunks according to the package instructions until golden and crispy.
- Slice each baked sweet potato down the middle and add 1 tablespoon butter, a generous pinch of salt, black pepper, and ¼ cup grated cheddar to each potato. Mash everything together until creamy and the cheese has melted.
- Top each potato with the crispy chicken chunks.
- Finish with a drizzle of sour cream, a sprinkle of fresh chives and chopped tomatoes.
