Ingredients
For Spanish Sweet Potato Rice
- 2 large sweet potatoes peeled
- 1 small onion finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 green or red pepper finely diced (I used red)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- salt and pepper to taste
For Honey-Lime Chicken
- 2 lb chicken breasts not thin
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- For Spanish Sweet Potato Rice
- Cut off each end of the sweet potatoes so they are flat on each side, and spiralize using the 3MM noodle blade or use a Julienne peeler.
- Working in batches, pulse the sweet potato noodles in the food processor or until they resemble the texture of rice. You should have a scant 3 cups of sweet potato rice.
- In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat, add the onion and green pepper. Sautee until soft
- Add the garlic, chili powder, paprika and cumin
- Pour the stock and bring to a boil
- Cover the pan and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Uncover and cook over high heat until all the liquid is absorbed and the sweet potato is tender, about another 5 minutes. Serve with honey-lime marinated chicken.
- For Honey-Lime Chicken
- Add all the ingredients to a Ziploc bag and marinate for a few hours.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and grill or broil on high for approximately 6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
