  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Store whole unpeeled sweet potatoes in a cool, dry place for up to 1 week (do not refrigerate or they will dry out).
  • tip 2
    Before using, scrub the sweet potatoes with a clean produce brush and rinse with cool water. Use a vegetable peeler or paring knife to peel sweet potatoes.
  • tip 3
    When working with chile peppers, wear plastic or rubber gloves. If your hands do touch the peppers, wash them well.
