Cheesy Chorizo and Egg Sweet Potato Boats Recipe

Directions

Ingredients :

2 large sweet potatoes

2 teaspoons olive oil

salt to taste

6 ounces ground chorizo

½ cup diced onion

1 poblano pepper, diced

1 clove garlic, minced

2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

2 eggs

¼ cup shredded pepperjack cheese

Methods :

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Coat sweet potatoes with olive oil and season with salt; place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until sweet potatoes are tender, about 1 hour. Cool until easily handled.

Step 4

Cook and stir chorizo, onion, poblano pepper, and garlic in a skillet over medium-high heat until chorizo is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir cilantro into chorizo mixture.

Step 5

Slice tops of cooled sweet potatoes horizontally and scoop out some of the flesh, creating "boats" with the peels and remaining flesh. Spoon chorizo mixture into "boats", forming a well in the middle. Crack 1 egg into each well and top with pepperjack cheese. Place boats on the baking sheet.

Step 6

Bake in the oven until egg whites are set and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
