Sweet potato and chicken gratin


Hello Everyone,

This month I wanted to go for something salty, since we have been doing sweet recipes 2 months in a row now.  The  most questions I get, by far, is how to make chicken interesting.   Well, you will love this one.

Pre-heat your oven to 200deg.

Start by peeling and chopping 600g sweet potatoes very thin.  Lay them out on a lined baking tray and oven bake until soft.

I added some salt and pepper to taste.  I know I eat way too much salt, but luckily my blood pressure is good.  :)

The rest of your ingredients:

450g cooked chicken.  (chopped)
Half a red onion (chopped,  you will lightly fry with with a clove of garlic and  some fresh herbs of choice)

2 whole eggs
180g egg whites OR 3 more whole eggs
150g cottage cheese
60g grated medium fat Gouda ( or cheese of choice)
Few sprinkles Parmesan (grated)
1 chopped tomato
200g fresh spinach

Add the eggs and cottage cheese to a blender and mix well.  Add the chicken and pulse just 2-3 times.  You don't want your chicken too fine.


Now you will begin the layering.  First add an layer of sweet potato.  Followed by a layer of spinach, then chicken, then a sprinkle of Parmesan.

Repeat this.

On the top layer, add the tomatoes and grated cheese.

Reduce your oven to 175 degrees for baking your gratin slowly.




When it is done, put in the oven for 45 minutes.  Check with a toothpick when it is cooked on the inside.


To remove your gratin, hold a plate over the pan and flip.  Add another plate over the gratin and flip him right side up.


I got 4 very big servings out of mine.  I am sure you can get away with 6-8 servings if you serve with vegetables



Bon Ap :)
