Method
-
Heat the oven to 200°C. Pierce the sweet potatoes, rub with 15 g oil and 1 g salt and bake for 45-55 minutes until a knife slides in easily. Timing depends on thickness.
-
Place the chicken in a saucepan with the 1200 g water, 4 g parsley and 1 g salt. Bring to a very gentle simmer and cook for 18-22 minutes until the centre reaches 74°C.
-
Lift out, cool slightly and shred. The liquid is not part of the dish; cool and refrigerate it if keeping for another use.
-
Finely slice the red onion, green pepper and carrot. Soften in 25 g oil with 1 g salt for 15 minutes.
-
Add all the shredded chicken and tomato sauce and cook for 5 minutes.
-
Mash all the avocado flesh and mix with the yoghurt, lemon juice, remaining 10 g oil and final gram of salt. Keep this sauce covered in the fridge until serving.
-
Split the baked sweet potatoes lengthways without separating the halves completely. Loosen the flesh with a fork and divide all the chicken filling between them.
-
Add all the avocado sauce and finish with the reserved 4 g parsley. Serve one sweet potato per person.
