Instructions

  1. Add all marinade ingredients to a food processor or blender, and blend until all ingredients have made a sauce.

  3. Add canola oil to pressure cooker, and turn on to browning or saute setting.
  4. Brown pork for 3 minutes on each side, until a nice golden crust forms. Whisk leftover marinade with 1 cup of water, then pour over top of pork.
  5. Set to high pressure for 45 minutes, then when time is up, let pressure naturally release for 10 minutes followed by a quick release.
  6. While pork is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast iron skillet, and cook sweet potatoes on medium high heat for 15-20 minutes, until soft and can be pierced through easily with a fork.
  7. Sprinkle with caribbean seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Add cooked pork to skillet, then broil in the oven for 5 minutes to crisp up the top of the pork. Drizzle with leftover marinade from the pressure cooker, then serve!
