Ingredients

  • 3 pounds center-cut boneless pork loin 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus 1 teaspoon, divided 2 teaspoons ground cumin Coarse salt and ground pepper 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound total), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes 1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, (optional) 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 lime), plus wedges for serving 1 can (14 1/2 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 450, with racks set in upper and lower thirds. Place pork on a rimmed baking sheet. Rub with 1 teaspoon oil; season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Roast on upper rack until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of meat registers 145 degrees, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven, and cover loosely with aluminum foil; let rest about 10 minutes. (Slice off 1/3 of meat and refrigerate.)

About 15 minutes after pork has begun roasting, place sweet potatoes on another rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with red-pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper; toss to coat. Roast on lower rack, until tender, tossing once during cooking, 25 to 35 minutes.

In a large bowl, whisk lime juice with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Add sweet potatoes, beans, onion, and, if using, cilantro; mix gently to combine. Thinly slice pork, and serve with salad and lime wedges.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/02/2014   Delicious bright flavor combination! The bean salad alone makes this dish but the pork turns out nice and tender with good flavor of its' own.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/27/2011   This is a brilliant combination of flavors and I make it so often that I just leave the recipe pinned to my refrigerator door. The sweet potato-black bean combo is really great.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/05/2011   My family asks for this recipe all the time. I've been making it since it appeared in the Everyday Food mag in 2007  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/18/2009   this was really tasty. i have never made pork before and i will definitely be making this again. i think i will even make it for my family again next week.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/17/2008   I have made the salad many times. It's one of my favorites. I bring to pot luck llunchs at work and everyone loves it. It is colorful and simple to make  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/14/2008   The heck with the pork! The sweet potato salad with black beans is EXCELLENT! It is such a colorful salad.....it get raves every time I make it for picnics and BBQ's! I go back to this recipe again and again!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/17/2008   I made this dish per the instructions. The pork is alright, but the potato and bean salad is really really really good. I would recommend spicing up the seasonings on the pork.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/15/2008   I just made the sweet potato and black bean salad as a side dish. Wow!! It was fantastic. I used a bit less cilantro and will make this again and again  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/14/2008   I made this dish over the weekend. Very easy to prepare. I used pork tenderloin instead, enough for 2. I also used only half a can of black beans and adding the cilantro really makes the salad. We loved it!
