  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim ends off green beans. Cut into 1" pieces.

    Core pear and cut into 1/2" slices.

    Peel and halve shallot. Cut into 1/4" slices.

    Mince garlic.

    Stem and mince thyme.

    Pat pork tenderloin dry, and season all over with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    If using bone-in pork chops, chicken, or NY strip steak, pat dry and season both sides same amount.

  2. 2

    Start the Green Beans and Pear

    Place green beans, pear, and shallot on prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Massage oil into vegetables and spread into an even layer (some overlap is OK).

    Roast in hot oven until starting to soften, 5 minutes.

    If using chicken, or NY strip steak, follow same instructions. If using bone-in pork chops, roast mixture in hot oven, 10 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven. Mixture will continue cooking in a later step.

  3. 3

    Sear the Pork

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add pork tenderloin to hot pan and cook until browned on two sides, 3-4 minutes per side.

    Place pork tenderloin on top of green bean mixture. Pork will continue cooking in a later step.

    If using bone-in pork chops, chicken or NY strip steak, follow same instructions and cook until browned, 2-3 minutes per side. Place on top of green bean mixture.

    Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  4. 4

    Roast the Pork, Green Beans, and Pear

    Roast baking sheet in hot oven until pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 16-18 minutes.

    If using chicken breasts, follow same instructions and roast until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 10-12 minutes. If using bone-in pork chops or NY strip steak, follow same instructions and cook until pork or steak reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 6-9 minutes for pork, or 12-14 minutes for steak.

    Rest pork at least 5 minutes, then slice if desired. Halve NY strip to serve.

    While pork rests, make sauce.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to sear pork tenderloin to medium heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil, garlic, and thyme to hot pan. Stir constantly until aromatic, 30-60 seconds.

    Stir in 1/4 cup water and chicken base. Bring to a simmer. Once simmering, stir occasionally until thickened slightly, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner and swirl in butter. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    Plate as pictured on front of card, placing pork on sauce. Bon appétit!
