0 of 7 done
  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan-assisted). Thoroughly wash the sweet potato and pierce it several times with a fork. Rub with half a tablespoon of olive oil and place it on a baking tray. Bake for approximately 40 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  2. While the sweet potato bakes, prepare the chicken. Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper. Heat the remaining olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chicken breast to the pan, cooking for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and golden brown. Once done, remove from the pan and let it rest for a couple of minutes before shredding it using two forks.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the mayo and cayenne pepper, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Set aside.
  5. Once the sweet potato is cooked, carefully cut it in half lengthwise and slightly mash the inside with a fork, creating space for the filling.
  6. Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture into each half of the sweet potato. Dollop Greek yogurt on top and sprinkle with chopped spring onions for garnish.
  7. Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the contrast between the spicy chicken and cooling yogurt.
