Instructions
• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. • Core, deseed, and dice poblano and bell pepper into ½-inch pieces. Dice sweet potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Toss veggies on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. (For 4, divide between 2 sheets; roast sweet potatoes on top rack and peppers on middle rack.) • Roast on top rack, tossing halfway through, until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, zest and quarter lime. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince garlic. • In a small bowl, combine 2½ TBSP sweet soy glaze, 2 TBSP water, ½ tsp sugar, and a squeeze of lime juice. (For 4 servings, use 5 TBSP sweet soy glaze, 4 TBSP water, and 1 tsp sugar.) TIP: Be sure to measure the sweet soy glaze—we sent more.
• Pat pork* dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minute per side. • Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board. Let rest at least 5 minutes, then thinly slice crosswise.
• Place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a second small microwave-safe bowl; microwave until melted, 30 seconds. Stir in a pinch of both garlic and lime zest; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• While pork rests, wipe out pan used for pork; heat over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil, scallion whites, and remaining garlic. Cook, stirring, until aromatics are softened and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Pour in sauce and cook until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Turn off heat.
• Once veggies are done, toss with garlic lime butter; season generously with salt and pepper. • Divide veggies and pork between plates. Top pork with sauce. Garnish with scallion greens. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
