Directions:
- Lightly spray a covered non-stick pot with cooking spray. Add the chicken and brown over high heat for 2 minutes, turning chicken once. Lower the heat and transfer the chicken to a plate. Set aside.
- Add all remaining ingredients to the pot except the reserved chicken pieces. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the pot, cover, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is barely falling off the bones.
- Divide the sweet potatoes and chicken between 4 shallow soup plates. Raise the heat under the pot and reduce the sauce for 2 minutes, stirring constantly (this will thicken it). Pour some of the mixture over each serving; serve immediately.
