  1. ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place the sweet potato halves, cut-side up, on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crisping up, 45-50 minutes.

  2. CHEESY JALAPEÑOS

    Place the grated cheese into a bowl and combine with the chopped jalapeños (to taste). Set aside.

  3. CHIVEY, CREAMY DRIZZLE

    In a small bowl, combine the chopped chives with the sour cream, a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Set aside.

  4. SIMPLE SALAD

    Place the rinsed leaves in a salad bowl and toss through the radish rounds, diced cucumber, the juice from 1 lemon wedge, a sweetener, a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Set aside.

  5. LOADED TATERS

    When the sweet potatoes have 10 minutes remaining, remove from the oven and evenly top the potato halves with the jalapeño & cheese mixture. Return to the oven for the remaining time or until the cheese is golden and melted.

  6. BBQ CHICKEN

    Place a pan (that has a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken until golden and through, 1-2 minutes per cooked side. During the final minute, baste the chicken strips with a knob of butter and the BBQ sauce. Remove from the pan, reserving any pan juices, and rest for 5 minutes.

  7. TIME TO DINE

    Plate up the cheesy sweet potato halves sided with the BBQ basted chicken and any remaining pan juices. Pile up the fresh salad and drizzle the chive sour cream over everything. Serve any remaining lemon wedges on the side. Wow, Chef!
