Cajun Chicken Fingers with Sweet Potato Fries
I'm pretty sure you're gonna like these!
The sweet potato fries are a great and healthy alternative to regular fries.
Especially because we're not deep frying anything here.
Let's start with;
Ingredients;
1 med. sweet potato, peeled and cut into sticks about 1/4" thick.
2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil.
1 tsp. (or more) Cajun seasoning or rub.
6 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips.
Ketchup and Creole mustard (optional).
Method of Prep;
Preheat your grill to high heat and the oven to 450F.
Toss the sweet potato sticks in 1 tsp. of the olive oil and 1/2 tsp. of seasoning.
Place them in a single layer on a nonstick baking sheet making sure they don't touch each other.
Bake the fries for 10 mins, turning them over and bake for approximately 10 to 15 mins, or until tender and starting to brown.
Meanwhile, toss the chicken in the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with the seasoning.
About 5 mins before the fries are done, grill the chicken for about 2 to 3 mins per side, or until the strips are no longer pink inside.
Serve immediately with ketchup and Creole mustard, if desired.
Makes 1 serving.
