Ingredients One per line	4 medium sweet potatoes (see note) 1 tablespoon olive oil ½ medium onion, cut into half moon slices 2 large bell peppers, any color, cored and sliced into thin strips 2 cups sliced mushrooms 2 to 3 cups cooked, shredded or chopped chicken 1 teaspoon ground cumin ½ teaspoon chili powder ½ teaspoon smoked or regular paprika ½ teaspoon garlic powder 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice ½ cup chopped cilantro 1 ½ cups shredded Mexican blend cheese (see note) Toppings: sour cream, avocado, cilantro, salsa, etc.
Directions One per line	Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a half sheet pan with foil and grease with cooking spray. Poke a few holes in each sweet potato with the tines of a fork. Place the sweet potatoes on the sheet pan and bake until tender, about 1 hour. While the sweet potatoes cook, heat the olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and peppers and cook until tender, 3-4 minutes, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove to a plate and return the skillet to the heat. Add another splash of olive oil, if needed. Add the mushrooms and cook, without stirring (for more golden color), for 1-2 minutes. Stir or flip and continue cooking for a few more minutes until golden and tender. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the onions and peppers back to the skillet with the mushrooms. Add the chicken, cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, lime juice and cilantro. Season to taste with salt and pepper! Preheat the oven broiler and position a rack in the upper middle position in the oven. Cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise and place on the baking sheet cut side up (replacing the foil, if needed). Scrape the flesh of the sweet potato with a fork until it is lightly mashed. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Divide the chicken/veggie mixture evenly among the sweet potatoes, piling it high. Sprinkle cheese over the top. Broil until the cheese is golden and bubbling (watch closely!), 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately with toppings of your choice (sour cream, salsa, avocado, cilantro, etc).
