Cooking: Chicken with Shallots and Mashed Sweet Potatoes

A very easy recipe this evening. We wanted something quick and tasty so I found this one for Chicken and Sweet Potatoes with Shallots. the chicken browned wonderfully. The shallots caramelized their little oniony hearts out. The sweet potatoes.... Well, I need to work on that. They were definitely tasty, but I left a little too much water in them so they didn't turn out as light and as fluffy as I wanted. That didn't matter too much; we thickened them with a bit of cheese -- because cheese can fix anything. All in all, a delicious meal.

I won't mention the red velvet cake we ate for dessert....
