Honey-Glazed Pork Tenderloin
with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Green Beans
A honey glaze may sound like something that goes with dessert, but mild-tasting pork loves a sweet sauce too, especially one that has a few savory elements in it for contrast. In this recipe, you’ll be combining an extra-large drizzle of honey with rich, meaty demi-glace, then spooning it onto pork tenderloin (and the roasted sweet potatoes and green beans, if you like).
Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Instructions
Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Peel sweet potatoes, then dice into ½-inch cubes. Toss with a large drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on one half of a baking sheet. Roast in oven until tender and lightly browned, 20-25 minutes total (we’ll add more to the sheet after 10 minutes).
Heat a large drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Pat pork dry with a paper towel, then season all over with salt and pepper. Add to pan and cook until surface is nicely browned, 6-8 minutes. Meanwhile, mince or grate garlic. Strip 1 TBSP thyme leaves from stems.
After sweet potatoes have roasted 10 minutes, remove from oven and toss, keeping cubes toward one side of sheet. Add green beans, a large drizzle of oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper to other side and toss. Return sheet to oven and roast until green beans are lightly crisped, about 15 minutes.
Once pork is browned, transfer to another baking sheet. Roast in oven until cooked to desired doneness, 8-12 minutes.
Heat a large drizzle of oil in same pan over medium heat. Add garlic and thyme. Cook, tossing until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in demi-glace, 1 cup water, and 1 TBSP honey (we sent more). Scrape up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Simmer until reduced by about half, 3-4 minutes. Add 2 TBSP butter and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper.
Let pork rest 2-3 minutes after removing from oven, then thinly slice. Divide green beans and sweet potatoes between plates, then top with pork. Drizzle with glaze and serve.
