Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

One 5-oz. raw boneless skinless chicken breast cutlet

1/4 tsp. blackened seasoning

1/8 tsp. garlic powder

1/8 tsp. onion powder

One 8-oz. sweet potato

1/4 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt

1 tbsp. sugar-free pancake syrup

1/8 tsp. cinnamon

1 dash salt

1/8 oz. (about 1/2 tbsp.) finely chopped pecans

1 tsp. hot honey

Directions:

Spray an air fryer with non-aerosol nonstick spray. Place chicken in the air fryer, and season with blackened seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Set air fryer to 370°F (or the nearest degree). Cook chicken until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, roughly chop.

Meanwhile, pierce potato several times with a fork. Wrap in a damp paper towel. Microwave for 3 minutes, flip it over, then microwave for another 2 minutes, or until fully tender.

In a small bowl, combine yogurt, syrup, and cinnamon. Mix well.

Once potato is cool enough to handle, transfer to a plate or bowl. Cut in half, and season with salt.

Top with yogurt mixture, chopped chicken, pecans, and hot honey.
