INSTRUCTIONS

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. Add sweet potato and cook over medium-high heat,
stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add chicken broth and lemon
juice and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium; cover and let  simmer
for 5 minutes. 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
