### Step 1
Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Dice @sweet potatoes{4%unit} into half-inch pieces. Halve, peel, and cut @yellow onion{2%unit} into half-inch-thick wedges. Remove and discard any large stems from @kale{8%ounce}; chop into bite-size pieces.

### Step 2
Toss sweet potatoes and onion on one side of a #baking sheet{} with a large drizzle of @cooking oil{1%tablespoon}, @salt{} and @pepper{}. (For 4 servings, spread veggies across entire sheet.) Roast on top rack for ~{10%minutes}.

### Step 3
Pat @pork tenderloin{20%ounce} dry with paper towels. Season all over with @smoked paprika{2%teaspoon}, salt, and pepper. Heat @olive oil{1%teaspoon} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add pork and sear, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 4-8 minutes. Once veggies have roasted ~{10%minutes}, transfer pork to the opposite side of the baking sheet. (For 4 servings, leave veggies roasting and add pork to a second sheet; roast on middle rack.) Roast until pork is cooked through and veggies are browned and tender, 10-12 minutes. TIP: If pork is done before veggies, remove from sheet and continue roasting veggies for ~{5%minutes} more. Transfer pork to a cutting board to rest.

### Step 4
Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a second large pan over medium heat. Add kale and 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings) and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat. Heat the pan used for pork over medium heat. Add @red pepper jam{2%unit}, @chicken stock concentrate{2%unit}, and 1/4 cup water (1/3 cup for 4 servings). Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced and thickened, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in @sour cream{4%tablespoon} until combined. Season with pepper. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water.

### Step 5
Transfer sweet potatoes and onion to the pan with kale. Cook over medium heat until warmed through, 1-2 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

### Step 6
Thinly slice pork crosswise. Divide veggies between bowls and top with pork. Spoon sauce over pork and serve.
