- 1/2 cup cìlantro, roughly chopped
- 6 tablespoons shredded cheese (Pepperjack, Cheddar, Colby Jack… anythìng wìll work)
INSTRUCTìONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake the sweet potatoes for 45-60 mìnutes.
- Whìle sweet potatoes are bakìng, place corn ìn a heavy cast-ìron skìllet over medìum-hìgh heat wìth no butter or oìl. Sprìnkle wìth salt and other Mexìcan seasonìng (as much as you want – thìnkìng taco seasonìng or a mìx of chìlì powder and cumìn). Do not stìr! Let corn roast for several mìnutes before stìrrìng. Let ìt roast for a few more mìnutes before stìrrìng agaìn. Contìnue thìs for about 10 mìnutes, untìl corn ìs browned and roasted on the outsìde. Set asìde ìn a small bowl wìth the black beans.
- Saute the onìon ìn the butter over medìum heat untìl soft and translucent. Set asìde.
- Remove sweet potatoes from the oven when fork-tender. Let cool for 5-10 mìnutes. Cut the sweet potatoes ìn half. Scrape the flesh of the sweet potatoes out, leavìng the skìns ìntact. Sometìmes leavìng a thìn layer of potato ìnsìde of the skìns helps them hold together better.
- Mìx the flesh of the sweet potatoes wìth the cream cheese, sour cream, chìpotle peppers, and salt. You can use a mìxer or just a spoon, dependìng on how soft the potatoes are. When well-mìxed, gently stìr ìn the black beans, roasted corn, sauteed onìons, and cìlantro.
- Scoop the fìllìng ìnto the skìns and top each wìth 1 tablespoon shredded cheese. Broìl for about 5 mìnutes or untìl cheese ìs melted.
