Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This is to roast those sweet potatoes until they’re soft and perfect for stuffing.
While that’s heating up, wash your sweet potatoes. Give ’em a good pierce with a fork all over, rub with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt. Then put ’em on a baking sheet ready to roast.
Roast the sweet potatoes for about 45 minutes or till you can poke a fork right through easily. You want them tender pull ready for stuffing.
While those potatoes are roasting, heat up a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toss in the chicken breasts and season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, and sea salt. Cook these about 6 to 7 minutes on each side until browned and no longer pink inside.
Take the chicken off heat and shred it with two forks. It’s gonna fall apart nice and tender.
In the same skillet, pour your BBQ sauce and chicken broth. Stir it up and throw the shredded chicken back in. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes so all those flavors get friendly.
By now, the potatoes are ready. Cut ‘em open and fluff the insides with a fork to make room for all that BBQ chicken goodness. Stuff each potato well and serve hot.
Notes
Serve each stuffed sweet potato with a generous portion of fresh slaw on top for added crunch and flavor.
