Instructions

Prep
1

Wash and dry all produce. Adjust racks to middle and upper positions and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges, like steak fries. Halve carrots lengthwise. Quarter any carrots thicker than ½ inch.

Roast Veggies
2

Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, half the harvest spice (use the rest as you like), salt, and pepper. Toss carrots on a second baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast potatoes on upper rack and carrots on middle rack of oven until tender, 30 minutes for potatoes and 25 minutes for carrots.

Cook Pork
3

Meanwhile, pat pork dry with a paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook to desired doneness, 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from pan and set aside.

Prep Remaining Ingredients
4

Meanwhile, halve, core, and dice apple. Halve onion; peel and dice one half (save the other for another use). Finely chop parsley. Once pork is done cooking, lower heat under same pan to medium. Add onion and 1 TBSP butter. Cook, tossing, until just softened, 2-3 minutes.

Simmer Apples
5

Add apple and cranberries to pan and cook, tossing, until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. Stir in stock concentrate, ¼ tsp cinnamon (we sent more), and ¼ cup water. Simmer, stirring, until apple is very tender and mixture has a thick, saucy consistency, about 4 minutes. (TIP: If mixture seems dry, stir in another splash of water.) Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

Plate and Serve
6

Stir any resting juices from pork into apple mixture. Divide pork, carrots, and potatoes between plates. Top pork with apple mixture. Sprinkle everything with parsley and serve.
