  • 1 teaspoon salt (+ more to taste)
  • 1/2 cup cìlantro, roughly chopped
  • 6 tablespoons shredded cheese (Pepperjack, Cheddar, Colby Jack… anythìng wìll work)

INSTRUCTìONS
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake the sweet potatoes for 45-60 mìnutes.
  2. 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.
  3. Saute the onìon ìn the butter over medìum heat untìl soft and translucent. Set asìde.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Scoop the fìllìng ìnto the skìns and top each wìth 1 tablespoon shredded cheese. Broìl for about 5 mìnutes or untìl cheese ìs melted.
