BBQ Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Creamy Coleslaw

Ingredients:
* 2 medium sweet potatoes
* 2-3 cups shredded chicken
* 1-2 tbsp olive oil
* Salt and pepper
* ½½=¾ cup BBQ sauce (plus more for drizzling)
* 1 bag shredded coleslaw cabbage
* ½ cup mayonnaise
* ⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt
* 1-2 tbsp apple c***r vinegar
* 1 tbsp honey (or sugar)
* 2 green onions, finely chopped

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Thoroughly wash and dry the sweet potatoes. Slice them lengthwise. Drizzle the cut sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place them cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Roast for about 40 minutes, until fork-tender and caramelized on the edges. Once out of the oven, let them rest face down on the baking sheet for at least 20 minutes to let the sugars carmelize a bit.

In a large bowl, pour in the bag of shredded cabbage. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayo, Greek yogurt, apple c***r vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Pour dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until well coated.

Refrigerate while everything else cooks (this helps the flavors come together).

When your potatoes are done resting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add shredded chicken and BBQ sauce. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and slightly caramelized with crispy edges.

Cut a slit down the center of each potato and gently squeeze the ends to open them up.

Fill generously with BBQ chicken and top with a scoop of creamy coleslaw.

Drizzle with extra BBQ sauce and sprinkle with chopped green onions.

Enjoy!
