Preparation
1
Prep and cook veggies

  • Peel, then cut sweet potato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Add sweet potatoes, half the Jerk Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the bottom of the oven, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden-brown, 18-20 min.

2
Prep and cook pork

  • Meanwhile, pat pork dry with paper towels. Season with remaining Jerk Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork. Pan-fry until golden, 2-3 min per side, then transfer pork to another parchment-lined baking sheet. 
  • Spread jerk sauce over pork in an even layer.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 7-10 min.**

3
Finish prep

  • Meanwhile, cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Cut cucumber into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime (whole lime for 4 ppl). Transfer lime juice to a medium bowl, then set aside.
  • Cut any remaining lime into wedges.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.

4
Make salsa fresca

  • Add 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to the bowl with lime juice. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
  • Add tomatoes, cucumbers and half the cilantro.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

5
Finish and serve

  • When sweet potatoes have finished roasting, add lime zest and remaining cilantro, then toss to coat.
  • Thinly slice pork, if desired.
  • Divide potatoes and pork between plates.
  • Top pork with salsa fresca.
  • Dollop yogurt sauce over everything.
