3 Ingredient Chicken Tikka Masala Sweet Potatoes

Prep Time:30 minutes Cook Time: 45 minutes Servings: 4 minutes

Simmer sauces pack tons of flavor into one ingredient, which helps streamline this easy three-ingredient dinner. Here we pair sweet potato with chicken breast cooked in tikka masala simmer sauce, but a simmer sauce of any flavor profile will work well too.

Ingredients:
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes (about 8 ounces each), scrubbed
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 (16-oz.) jar tikka masala simmer sauce
  • nonfat plain strained yogurt, such as greek-style, for serving (optional)
  • chopped fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Directions:
  1. Prick sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Place on a microwave-safe plate; microwave on High, flipping once, until soft and easily pierced with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; add simmer sauce and simmer, stirring frequently, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced slightly, 5 minutes.
  3. Cut the sweet potatoes in half; top with the chicken and sauce. Top with yogurt and sprinkle with cilantro, if desired.
