Instructions
- Core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
- Peel, then cut sweet potato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- Meanwhile, reserve 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) Thai Seasoning in a small bowl.
- Pat pork dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and remaining Thai Seasoning.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then pork. Sear, turning occasionally, until golden-brown, 1-2 min.
- Transfer pork to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast in the top of the oven until cooked through, 8-12 min.**
- Carefully discard fat from the pan.
- Meanwhile, add peppers, sweet potatoes, 1 tsp (2 tsp) soy sauce and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to another parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until veggies are tender, 16-18 min.
- Meanwhile, add vinegar and 1 1/2 tbsp (3 tbsp) oil to a large bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. (TIP: Add 1/4 tsp [1/2 tsp] sugar for a slightly sweeter vinaigrette, if desired.)
- Heat the same pan (from step 2) over medium.
- When hot, add peanut butter, remaining soy sauce, reserved Thai Seasoning, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) ginger-garlic puree, 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) water and 1 tsp (2 tsp) sriracha. (NOTE: Reference heat guide.)
- Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is smooth and comes to a gentle simmer. (TIP: Add 1/4 tsp [1/2 tsp] sugar, if desired.)
- Thinly slice pork.
- Add roasted veggies and spinach to the bowl with vinaigrette, then toss to combine.
- Divide salad between plates, then top with pork. Drizzle peanut sauce over pork.
If you've opted to get pork chops, sear, roast and plate in the same way the recipe instructs you to sear, roast and plate the pork tenderloin.
