Baked Chicken with Cashews

The chicken was pretty good, if a bit dry, unfortunately the sweet potato was uninspiring. I will keep this recipe and will try it again, perhaps not baked as long.  I also would like to try this recipe with almonds. I don't have a toaster over, so I used the oven.

Baked Chicken with Cashews

1 large chicken thigh or 1/2 a boneless chicken breast, skinned

1 1/2 t. butter, melted

1/8 t. paprika

1/8 t. curry powder

1/8 t. oregano

dash garlic powder

dash cayenne pepper

salt, if desired

1 T cashew pieces or slivered almonds

1 small yam or sweet potato

1. Place chicken in individual casserole.  

2. Combine butter, oregano, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix well.

3. Spoon over chicken.

4. Bake, uncovered, in 350º toaster oven, along with yam, for 45 to 60 minutes, or until chicken and yam are tender. About 10 minutes before chicken is done, baste chicken with butter mixture in casserole and sprinkle cashews over top. Makes 1 serving.
