BBQ Chicken stuffed in a Sweet Potatoe

As I said before I am in the mood to stuff things.  When I saw the following recipe I knew I had to try, it just looked good, and it fit my mood to stuff things.  This recipe was really easy, filling and yummy!


Sweet Potato, cooked
Salt, Pepper, Nutmeg
Butter
2 BBQ Chicken Breasts Shredded
BBQ Sauce
Cheddar Cheese, shredded

1. Bake sweet potato for 45 minutes until tender. Let cool before cutting. Lay the potato down longways and cut the top piece of skin off and start to mash the potato with a fork. Add butter, salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg and mash until the potato is creamy. Try not to break apart the skin.
2. Shred a cooked chicken breast with a fork and add to a hot saute pan. When hot add BBQ sauce. I added about 2 TBS of sauce for one shredded chicken breast.
3. Mash down the potato to make room for this chicken. Add cheese on top and either bake for 10 minutes, or broil for 5 minutes.
4. Enjoy!
