Maple Glazed Chicken with Sweet Potatoes

Adapted from Allrecipes

This meal is simple and delicious.  I love sweet potatoes; they are the wheat version of regular potatoes.  So healthy, but delicious!

Ingredients:

• 1.5 lbs sweet potatoes
• 1 lb chicken breat, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 2 tsp steak seasoning
• 2 Tbs vegetable oil
• ½ cup light maple syrup
• ½ cup onion, diced

Directions:

• Wash the skins of the sweet potatoes and pierce with a fork.  Place the sweet potatoes in microwave and heat on high for 2 minutes.  Turn over and cook for another 2 minutes or until soft.  Take a knife and cut the top skin off the sweet potato.  Using a spoon, scoop out the sweet potato.  Mash the sweet potatoes and set aside.
• Sprinkle chicken with steak seasoning; heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken until the meat is lightly browned and no longer pink inside.  Cook the onion with the chicken until browned.  Remove the chicken and onions and set aside.  Stir the maple syrup into the skillet, scraping up and dissolving any browned flavor bits from the skillet.  Bring to a boil, simmer for 2 minutes.
• To serve, place the mashed sweet potatoes onto a serving platter, top with the chicken and onions and pour the maple sauce over the chicken.
