This is so good! I must admitt that for the sweet potatoes I just boil them and then mash them with a bit of the cooking water,(canned ones in light syrup also work well in a pinch. I love sweet potatoes and find that the less you do to them, the more people like them. Sometimes I use chicken tenders instead and this makes for a nicer presentation. The flavor profiles are great together.

I just made the Chicken Skewers (on the grill part of this & baked the sweet potatoes plainly. My boys were fighting over the chicken & both my husband & I enjoyed the Cilantro Chimichurri. Great flavor for quick & easy. Will definitely make again.

Excellent combination of flavors. The glaze is not overly sweet and the chicken and sweet potatoes complement each other really well.

This dish was so delicious, flavorful and different than our everyday dinner -- it was a huge hit. The flavors are complex, and for those who cook fairly often, it was quite easy to put together. I realize it has a lot of ingredients, but it is totally worth it. I'll use it next time I have company coming over and want to impress them! Delicious!

I love all these ingredients. I have been using the housin on burgers and chipotle in holindaise sauce. So this just fits right in I hate seening ingredients go to waste esp when you only need a few table or teaspoons. :

This is such an easy week night dinner. The flavors meld together perfectly, and the lime and cilantro are a must. It's also easy to double or triple the chicken and leftovers would be good on salads, in stir fries. Camilla Saulsbury has a great palate.

My husband watched the contest where this won back in 2005 and tried it back then and thought it was pretty good. I had forgotten about it and ran across the recipe this weekend during some cleaning. After making it again, I can't believe how great all the flavors are. If you try it once and are not sure, try it again. I will definately make this a regular on my menu now! We even had the sweet potatoes with grilled steak and it was just fabulous.

Yum! This recipe deserves to be served during the week and to special company. It is delicious!! It is fresh, spicy, mild and wholesome!
I used fresh parsley in the chimichurri sauce instead of cilantro. (My husband does not like cilantro. Don't forget to drizzle this sauce on the plated chicken and sweet potatoes. It adds another wonderful layer of texture, freshness, and taste.
I live in the country in North Carolina so I had a little bit of hard time finding the chipotle pepper in adobo sauce. I found it in the Hispanic section of the grocery store.
The ingrediients in this dish are well worth the shopping time.

The only thing that I did differently was I baked the chicken in the marinade. I did not broil it. The chicken came out perfect. I thought the sauce was a little sweet for me so I did not want the chicken to have that sweet of a crust. Also, the saltiness of the chimichurri ontop the chicken balanced the sweet flavor. Me and my husband do not like sweet potatoes either but these were delicious. I love the smoky lime flavor!!! I will definitely be making this recipe again, however I will halve the amount of sugar in the sauce.

It took me awhile before I tried this recipe. We decided to put the chicken on the Barbecue and I doubled the amount of sauce. We thought the recipe was AWESOME. We have 2 very picky eaters ages 6 and 8 and they enjoyed it. The only thing with this recipe is that you should eat the chicken with the potatoes. If you try to eat those smoky potatoes by themselves they are way to smoky.
