Juicy pork filet loves a little something sweet, and sweetness pairs beautifully with a little spicy heat! Lucky you—tonight’s dinner has it all. Succulent pork is seasoned with our Southwest Spice Blend, seared, then roasted to perfection beside a colorful array of sweet potatoes, green bell pepper, and red onion. Top the pork with a citrusy Tex-Mex sauce made with fresh orange and lime juice, and drizzle your plate with cool, tangy lime crema just before serving. Cheers to perfect pairings!

Cooking Steps

1
  • Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Dice sweet potato into ½-inch pieces. Halve, peel, and slice onion into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper into strips. Zest and quarter lime. Halve orange.

2
  • Toss sweet potato, onion, and bell pepper on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, half the Southwest Spice Blend (you’ll use the rest in the next step), and a big pinch of salt and pepper.

  • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

3
  • Meanwhile, pat pork* dry with paper towels; season all over with remaining Southwest Spice Blend, salt, and pepper.

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add pork and sear, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 4-8 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer pork to a second baking sheet. Wipe out pan.

  • Roast pork on middle rack until cooked through, 12-15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.

4
  • While pork and veggies roast, in a small bowl, combine sour cream, a squeeze of lime juice, and a pinch of lime zest. PRO TIP: Swap sour cream for Greek yogurt for an even more gut-friendly option.

  • Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

5
  • About 5 minutes before pork and veggies are done, heat pan used for pork over medium-high heat. Stir in half the Tex-Mex paste (all for 4 servings), juice from orange halves, and a squeeze of lime juice. Bring to a simmer and cook until sauce has thickened, 1-2 minutes.

  • Remove pan from heat; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted and combined.

6
  • Slice pork crosswise.

  • Divide pork and veggie jumble between plates. Spoon Tex-Mex sauce over pork. Drizzle crema over everything and serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
