Steps:
- Preheat oven to 475°F. You will need an oven-proof skillet; I use my cast-iron skillet Pork: Mash garlic with 1/4 teaspoon salt to a paste. Add brown sugar, 1 tablespoon rum, zest, and 1/2 teaspoon each cumin and coriander; rub into pork. Vegetables: Combine 1 tablespoon oil, the rum and orange juice and toss with the salt, pepper and cumin. Toss with the sweet potatoes and onion. Set aside. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet (if you don't own one, use a heavy bottomed oven proof skillet) over medium high. Sear pork on one side until browned. Flip the pork and arrange the sweet potatoes and onion around it. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork registers 145F-150°F and sweet potatoes are fork-tender, 12 to 15 minutes. If desired, garnish the vegetables with some fresh cilantro. Let pork rest, then slice and serve. Tasting notes: I drizzled a little extra olive oil to the sweet potatoes in the last five minutes of roasting time, as they looked a bit dry. I also tossed them, a bit, for more even roasting. I added a squeeze of fresh lime to the pork, which added a little extra "zip" and some more Cuban flavors.
