3-4 Sweet Potatoes, thinly sliced
1 tbs extra light olive oil
salt & pepper to taste
1 lb fajita chicken meat
2 ears of corn on the cob
1 1/2 c cooked pinto beans (or canned)
1 chopped red onion
1-2 chopped tomatoes
fresh guacamole or avocado slices
Preheat oven to 350º.
Place thinly sliced sweet potato rounds on a baking sheet and brush with oil. Lightly salt and pepper them, and bake for about 20 minutes, or until they’re cooked through and lightly crispy on the outside.
While sweet potatoes are cooking, sautéed up your chicken meat. I like to buy the frozen fajita meat because it’s so fast to cook, but that’s a personal preference.
When your potatoes are done cooking, transfer them to a platter or plate.
Top with chicken, pinto beans, corn, tomatoes, onion, and guacamole to taste.
