PREPARATION

• 1

  Peel and cube the sweet potato, then boil in water until tender, about 12-15 minutes.

• 2

  While the potato boils, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced onion, carrots, and minced garlic until softened.

• 3

  Add the ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and no longer pink.

• 4

  Stir in the tomato paste, dried thyme, sea salt, black pepper, chicken broth, and frozen peas, simmering for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

• 5

  Drain the sweet potatoes and transfer to a bowl; add the cottage cheese and mash until the mixture is velvety and smooth.

• 6

  Transfer the chicken mixture to a small oven-safe baking dish and spread the sweet potato mash evenly over the top.

• 7

  Place under a broiler for 3-5 minutes until the peaks of the mash are lightly golden brown and fragrant.
