Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Wrap sweet potato in foil and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until cooked through. When cooked peal skin and mash. Set aside
- While the sweet potato is cooking lay out the chicken breast on a cutting board, loosely cover with plastic wrap and use a meat mallet to pound thin about ¼ inch.
- Season the chicken breast with poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Combine the sweet potato, kale, breadcrumbs, sundried tomatoes, raisins and sugar and mix well. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and evenly distribute the stuffing for each chicken breast. For best results place the mixture in the center of each chicken breast.
