Ingredients
- 700 g sweet potato
- 340 g chicken breast
- 200 g edamame
- 60 g teriyaki sauce
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 8 g sesame seeds
- 1 clove garlic
- 8 g fresh ginger
- 1 spring onion
Method, step by step
- Preheat the oven to 210°C. Peel the sweet potato and cut it into 2 cm cubes, put them on a baking tray with half a tablespoon of oil and a pinch of salt, and bake for 22 minutes until tender and golden on the outside.
- Meanwhile, cut the chicken breast into cubes and sauté them in a frying pan with the rest of the oil over high heat for 6-7 minutes, with the grated garlic and ginger, until browned and cooked through.
- Lower the heat, add the teriyaki sauce, and stir for 2 minutes until the chicken is glazed and shiny; set aside.
- In the same frying pan, sauté the edamame for 3-4 minutes over high heat with a pinch of salt, add the sesame seeds, and toss a couple of times.
- Assemble the two bowls with the roasted sweet potato on the bottom, top with the teriyaki chicken and edamame, and finish with the chopped spring onion on top.
