Microwave sweet potato(s) for 4-7 minutes, or until soft. (Optional: bake in 400F (200 C) oven for 45 min to 1 hr instead)

Meanwhile, put raw chicken in a pot and cover with about an inch of water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes until chicken is done.

Transfer chicken to a bowl and shred with 2 forks.

Add pesto to chicken and mix well. Stuff sweet potatoes with chicken mixture. Serve.
