Maple Glazed Chicken with Sweet Potatoes

A sweet and slightly tangy option for chicken and potatoes. This is a favorite in our house.

Step: 1

Place the sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Mash the potatoes, and set aside.

Step: 2

Sprinkle chicken tenders with steak seasoning; heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken tenders until the meat is lightly browned and no longer pink inside, 5 to 8 minutes per side. Remove the chicken, and set aside. Stir the maple syrup into the skillet, scraping up and dissolving any browned flavor bits from the skillet. Bring to a boil, simmer for 2 minutes, and stir in the green onions.

Step: 3

To serve, place the mashed sweet potatoes onto a serving platter, top with the chicken tenders, and pour the maple sauce over the chicken.

Avoidance on late-night snacking and cravings , it is much important to include some fun foods (or what one may perceive as unnecessary ). Meaning , if we always order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, perhaps we really will the junk food and should have just pleased it in the first place."

Because it comes to eat on evening , overeating or eating too much of the bad item of food can lead to trouble on sleeping. On the flip side, a meal that is less than satiating can leave you want more and resulting in reaching for an eat bad food late-night side dish even closer to sleep .
