EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

For spicier chicken, add another jalapeño chili.

Sweet potatoes with deep orange flesh are sweeter and moister than pale yellow sweet potatoes. Use orange sweet potatoes for this recipe.

Overall a good dish. I was very pleasantly surprised to find such a nutritious, healthful dish. The downfall to this dish is that is ended up being a little more watery than I had hoped. This might be partly because I cooked the dish on high for 4 hours instead of on low for 8. More moisture would have probably been cooked out in 8. Also, I would probably add more jalapenos next time. It could have used a little more kick.

This recipe sounds delicious! I am going to try it tonight. And FYI...darker orange sweet potatoes are actually called yams in the grocery store and I agree they are sweeter than sweet potatoes which are more yellow in color. I will rate it after I try it but, a recipe coming from Betty Crocker I am sure it will be 5 spoons.
