Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp jerk seasoning, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 2 tbsp olive oil to form a paste.
Step 2: Rub the 1 lb pork tenderloin evenly all over with the jerk paste. Place the pork on a large rimmed baking sheet.
Step 3: Toss 2 medium peeled and cubed sweet potatoes and 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks with 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Spread around the pork on the sheet pan in a single layer.
Step 4: Roast for 25-30 minutes, turning sweet potatoes and pineapple halfway through, until pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized.
Step 5: Remove pork from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve pork slices with roasted sweet potatoes and pineapple, garnished with lime wedges for squeezing over.
