INGREDIENTS

2 ts Margarine; [or canola oil]
1 c Chopped onions
6 oz Sweet potato; pared, cut in 1/2" cubes
1/2 c Chicken broth; canned, ready to serve
1 ts Fresh lemon juice
4 oz Chickpeas; canned, rinsed and drained
1/8 ts Thyme; leaves
1/4 ts Lemon peel; grated
1 ds Pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a 10-inch non-stick skillet melt margarine [or heat canola oil - my
preference], add onions and saute over high heat, until translucent, about
1 minute.
2. Add sweet potato and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally,
for 2 minutes.
3. Add chicken broth and lemon juice and stir to combine. Reduce heat to
medium; cover and let simmer for 5 minutes.
4. Add chick-peas, thyme, lemon peel, and pepper and stir to combine; cover
and let simmer until mixture is heated through and liquid is absorbed,
about 5 minutes.
Makes 2 large servings.
NOTES : 1. I found that 6 ounces of pared sweet potato was about half of
one large. 2. I have no canned ready-to-serve chicken broth, so I boiled
1/2 cup of water, then stirred in some Knorr Chicken Bouillon concentrate.
I didn't measure but gauged the necessary amount by the similarity to the
strength of the scent of real chicken broth. I let this broth cool a bit
before it was time to add it to the skillet. 3. If this is not the only
side dish, the recipe should serve at least 3. 4. The source: Weight
