A sweet and slightly tangy option for chicken and potatoes. This is a favorite in our house. Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces |
1 pound chicken tenders |
2 teaspoons steak seasoning (such as montreal steak seasoning®) |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1/2 cup maple syrup |
1/2 cup sliced green onions |
Directions:
1. Place the sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Mash the potatoes, and set aside.
2. Sprinkle chicken tenders with steak seasoning; heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken tenders until the meat is lightly browned and no longer pink inside, 5 to 8 minutes per side. Remove the chicken, 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, and stir in the green onions.
3. To serve, place the mashed sweet potatoes onto a serving platter, top with the chicken tenders, and pour the maple sauce over the chicken.
