2. In a large saute pan, heat oil over medium high heat. Saute pork, browning on all sides. When browned, remove with slotted spoon and set aside. In same pan and oil, saute yellow onion until golden brown. Add sweet potatoes and sweet peppers to sauteed onions and continue to saute an additional 3 to 4 minutes, until vegetables begin to soften. Add additional oil if necessary.
