4. Add the sweet potato, red chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Asparagus was added to this. Cover the skillet. Cook until the sweet potatoes are tend, stirring occasionally.

 
5. While the sweet potatoes are cooking, preheat the oven to 400ºF.
6. When the sweet potatoes are tender, add the shredded mozzarella cheese, and put the skillet in the oven to melt the cheese.
7. When the cheese melts, remove from the oven, and garnish with parsley.
