MICROWAVE SWEET POTATO – STEPS:

1. Mix ingredients in a bowl, open bag and pour the ingredients with the sweet potato into the bag.
2. Properly seal the bag “zipper”. Ensure it is tightly closed.
3. Stand the filled bag on a microwavable plate and place in microwave.
4. Average cooking time is between 6 – 6 ½ minutes for a 1000w microwave.
5. When done, remove the plate/bag using oven mitts. Let stand for 1 minute.  If not sufficiently cooked reseal the bag and continue cooking in 30 second increments.
6. Carefully open the bag and place the potatoes on a plate using tongs.
7. Pour any remaining seasonings and or liquid over the plated food.

IMPORTANT: Handle carefully: hot steam/liquid escapes from the bag.
