INGREDIENTS
- 2 medium Sweet Potato
- 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil
- 2 pound Ground Chicken
- 2 pound Ground Pork
- 1.5 cup Bread Crumbs - gluten free
- 2 Eggs
- 0.75 cup Chinese (Garlic) Chives - diced (green parts only)
- 0.33 cup Olive Oil - garlic infused
- 2 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
- 1.25 tablespoon Italian Herbs - mix
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 0.13 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 0.13 teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
- 2 cup Arugula
- 2 cup Spinach
INSTRUCTIONS
- To make the sweet potato, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the sweet potato in half, and then again in quarters. Get two sheets of foil. Lay the sweet potato chunks on foil, drizzle with 1 Tablespoon coconut oil and then place the second sheet on top. Seal up the edges to create a sealed pack. Place on a small baking sheet (to catch any drips) and place in preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes (or until potato is easily pierced through).
- While the potatoes are baking…mix ground chicken and pork, GF bread crumbs, eggs, chives, garlic infused olive oil, mustard, Italian herb mixture, paprika and a generous pinch of sea salt and pepper together with your hands.
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add remaining coconut oil. Form patties with your hands (approximately ½ cup of ground mixture) and pan fry for 5-7 minutes on each side, until internal temperature reads 165 degrees. Set aside.
- In the same pan, turn the heat down to medium and gently wilt the arugula and spinach, sautéing for 1-2 minutes.
- To serve: Divide the sautéed greens among the plates, topping each with ½ cup sweet potato. Serve with two patties.
NOTES
we prefer to leave the skin on the sweet potato for the added fiber (even with skin included, this is still a low FODMAP food). If you prefer to chop and boil your potato to cook it, when you cook it you will create resistant starch. If you eat this cold, you will be eating resistant starch which will likely set off your symptoms. Always reheat potato (and rice) before eating. This breaks the bonds of the resistant starch.
Need an egg replacement? *this is equivalent to one egg, so adjust per the number of eggs that the recipe is calling for: Wisk 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed (measured after grinding) with 3 tablespoons of water. Set in the frig for 15 minutes. This should make a sticky thick mixture. Add into the recipe where the egg is called for.
