Preparation
Prepare the sweet potatoes
- Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first.
- Cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise into ½ inch wedges.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, a drizzle of oil, ½ the spices and S&P.
- Wrap in aluminum foil and fold the edges over to seal.
Grill the sweet potatoes
- Reduce the BBQ heat to medium-high.
- Place the foil package on the upper BBQ grates and close the lid.
- Grill, turning and moving occasionally on the grates, 20 to 25 min., until tender.
- Let sit for 5 min. before unwrapping (be careful as the steam will escape as you open).
Grill the chicken
- Meanwhile, pat the chicken* dry; season with the remaining spices and S&P.
- Add to the BBQ and grill, 4 to 6 min. per side, until cooked through.
Make the slaw & lemony sour cream
- Meanwhile, peel and pit the mango; thinly slice lengthwise.
- Juice the lemon.
- In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, mango, cashews, all but 1 tsp of the lemon juice (double for 4 portions), a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, remaining lemon juice and S&P.
Plate your dish
- Divide the sweet potatoes, chicken and slaw between your plates.
- Serve the lemony sour cream on the side. Bon appétit!
