Time 1h55m

Yield 8 skins

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 16.5-ounce can baked beans with bourbon and brown sugar, such as Bush's Best Bourbon and Brown Sugar Grillin' Beans
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 scallions (white and pale green parts), sliced, dark green tops sliced and reserved for garnish
1 jalapeno, seeds and ribs removed, diced
1/2 cup sour cream
Juice of 2 limes
1 avocado, diced
One 10-ounce tube Mexican chorizo

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet until soft when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour. Let cool for 15 minutes.
  • Slice each potato lengthwise and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Brush the empty potato skins with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Return the skins to the baking sheet and bake until crispy, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the sweet potato flesh with the beans, cumin, chile powder, scallions and jalapenos. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove the skins from the oven and fill each with some of the bean mixture. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack, transfer the filled potato skins to the rack and bake for another 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a food processor, blend together the sour cream, lime juice and avocado until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off the fat.
  • Top the potato skins with warm, crispy chorizo, avocado drizzle and sliced scallion tops.

These stuffed sweet potato skins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more savory filling.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but these stuffed skins were surprisingly good. The filling was sweet and savory, and the skins were crispy.
