- REMOVE THE CHICKEN FROM THE POT using a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl or plate. Reserve around ¼ cup of the liquid and discard the rest.

Add the garlic to the pot and stir until fragrant, about 60 seconds. Then add the sweet potato and stir to evenly distribute the onion and pepper. Sauté for an additional 3-5 minutes or until the sweet potato is tender but not mushy.
- ADD CHICKEN AND LIQUID with the vegetable mixture and mix together. Serve immediately.
