# Directions:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Prick sweet potatoes several times with a fork, rub with olive oil and salt, then place on a baking sheet. Roast for 40–50 minutes until tender.
02 - While sweet potatoes bake, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add drained chickpeas, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Sauté for 2–3 minutes.
03 - Stir in BBQ sauce and cook for another 5–7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the chickpeas evenly. Remove from heat.
04 - In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, and cilantro. In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss the dressing with vegetables until well coated.
05 - Once sweet potatoes are cooked, slice them open lengthwise and fluff the insides with a fork. Spoon BBQ chickpeas into each sweet potato and top generously with slaw.
06 - Garnish with sliced green onions, fresh cilantro, and extra BBQ sauce if desired. Serve warm.
