Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400 F. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork with teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, 6 to 8 minutes.

Make the glaze: In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, honey, and chili pepper. Brush the pork with half of it, transfer the skillet to oven, and roast, turning once, until the pork is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Brush with the remaining glaze and let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the jicama, pineapple, bell pepper, cilantro, lime juice, the remaining tablespoon of oil, and teaspoon each salt and pepper. Serve with the pork.
