Cuban Style Pork & Sweet Potato Stew
Maybe the best thing I’ve ever cooked in my life. No lie.
Recipe and photo* after the jump.
And like I mentioned earlier, I’m sure this is totes Paleo (100%) for those of you who are on that train.
*No matter how hard I tried to take a good photo of this, it was rather impossible to make it not look like throw-up. But I promise it’s so tasty.
Cuban Style Pork & Sweet Potato Stew
- 1 large sweet potato (about 1 lb),peeled & cut into 1/2” dice
- 1 lb. pork tenderloin, cut into 1” pieces
- 14.5 oz. can of diced tomatoes (I used Kroger brand fire-roasted)
- 1 small can of diced green chiles
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 cup orange juice (I used a light version of OJ - half the calories)
- 2 medium scallions, chopped (green parts only)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
- 2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, chopped (I left this out)
Put everything in a 4-5 quart slow cooker except the lime juice & cilantro. Cover and cook on low setting for 7 hours.
Stir in the lime juice & cilantro and cook for 5 more minutes.

I’ve thought about making this, but I’m not a sweet potato fan :-/ Do you have to love sweet potatoes to love it?

And this is why the Internet should live in a giant house. So you can cook us all the food.
