Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Thoroughly wash and halve the medium sweet potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and season with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes until tender.
  2. While baking, prepare pico de gallo by dicing tomatoes, finely chopping onion, garlic, and cilantro. Mix in a bowl, add lime juice, and season with salt and pepper. Chill in the refrigerator.
  3. Once sweet potatoes are cool, scoop out flesh into a mixing bowl, leaving a thin layer in the skins. Combine with rinsed black beans, corn, and Boursin cheese. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Refill the hollowed sweet potato skins with the creamy filling. For neatness, use a piping bag. Arrange back on the baking sheet and broil for 5-8 minutes until tops are golden and crisp.
  5. Serve warm topped with chilled pico de gallo, avocado slices, and sour cream if desired. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
