Mexican Pork And Sweet Potato Stew

The appeared in womans day magazine and the photo set my heart aflutter. need to do a little decluttering so i wanted to type it up and decided to take a chance and post it untried. great ingredients combined with easy preparation and a short cooking time. What's not to love? even better it is ww core and just 5 points on flex.

Steps

Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the cubed tenderloin and cook for 7 minutes , turning so all sides are browned and the pork is cooked.
Remove from pan and set aside.
Add the remaining teaspoon of oil to the pan along with the onions , peppers and sweet potatoes.
Cover and cook for three minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add the sweet potatoes , continuing to cook another 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the garlic , cumin and cinnamon , stirring so that the spices are well mixed into the vegetables.
There should be a nice aroma at this point.
Stir in the water and broth and bring to a boil.
Lower to a simmer and add in the corn.
Cook covered for 5 minutes.
Add in the salsa and the cooked pork.
Cook until heated through.
If you are using salsa from the fridge , i would suggest adding it a minute before the meat so that it cn heat up without leaving the tender meat tough.
Garnish with cilantro and serve with warm tortillas or tortilla .
