Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 Japanese sweet potato, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp sea salt (more to taste)
- Optional: 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 cup low-sodium broth (bone broth or vegetable broth)
- 1 can lentils, drained and rinsed
- 2 large handfuls of chopped kale
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Juice of 1 lemon
For Serving (Optional):
- Tahini
- Chili oil
- Pita or sourdough bread
Instructions:
- Sauté Potatoes: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cubed sweet potatoes and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until they start to soften.
- Add Seasonings: Stir in the oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, sea salt, and optional red pepper flakes.
- Simmer: Pour in the broth and stir to combine. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and let simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
- Add Greens and Lentils: Stir in the chopped kale and drained lentils. Cook for a few minutes until the kale is wilted.
- Finish Sauce: Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, until thickened to your liking.
- Serve: Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve with a drizzle of tahini, a splash of chili oil, and pita or sourdough bread on the side, if desired.
Notes:
- Cream Alternatives: For a lighter version, you can use coconut milk or a plant-based cream substitute.
- Spice Level: Adjust the red pepper flakes according to your spice preference.
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove, adding a splash of broth if necessary to loosen the sauce.
Enjoy your creamy and hearty sweet potato and lentil skillet!!!
