Honey Thyme Pork Filet
with Roasted Potatoes and Green Beans
- Milk
A honey-based sauce 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 added to the mix. In this recipe, you’ll be folding an extra-large drizzle of honey into a rich, savory pan sauce, then spooning it onto pork filet. (We recommend spooning it on the roasted potatoes and side of green beans, too!)

Cooking Steps
• Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Dice potatoes into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Toss on one side of a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on middle rack until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes total. (You’ll add more to the sheet after 10 minutes.)
• Meanwhile, pat pork dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 6-8 minutes (it’ll finish cooking in Step 4). • While pork cooks, trim green beans if necessary. Peel and mince garlic.
• Once potatoes have roasted 10 minutes, remove sheet from oven; carefully toss, keeping on one side. • Toss green beans on opposite side with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Return to middle rack until veggies are tender, 10-12 minutes more.
• Once pork is browned all over, transfer to a second baking sheet. • Roast on top rack until pork is cooked through, 8-12 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for pork over medium heat. Add garlic and thyme; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Stir in stock concentrates, honey, and 1⁄4 cup water (1⁄2 cup for 4 servings). Simmer, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan, until reduced by half, 3-4 minutes. • Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in a splash or two of water.
• Thinly slice pork crosswise. • Divide pork, green beans, and potatoes between plates. Drizzle pork with sauce and serve.
Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145º.

Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The honey-thyme pan sauce is the standout star — sweet, savory, and deeply flavorful. Some found the sides bland; adding extra seasoning to the potatoes and green beans helps.
- Ease of prep: Most found this straightforward to cook, though several noted it takes closer to 45–60 minutes rather than the stated 30.
- Suggestions: Use less thyme if you prefer a milder sauce, as the full amount can overpower or turn bitter. A splash of apple cider vinegar or white wine in the sauce adds nice depth, and chopping potatoes small ensures they cook through in time.
- Leftovers: Leftovers reheat well, and a few noted the pork makes excellent sandwiches the next day.
- Green beans: Many prefer steaming or sautéing the green beans rather than roasting, which can make them tough and shriveled.
- Sauce: Some found the sauce too thin or too thick — reduce it a bit longer for a richer consistency, or add a splash of water if it seizes up.
- Pork: Searing the pork first and finishing in the oven keeps it juicy and tender; finishing in an air fryer is another option some found helpful for avoiding dryness.

Tasty 🤤, due to my lack of baking sheet I changed the recipe a little. Seared the pork, fried/boiled the cubed potatoes and green beans separately in 1 cup of water with a 1tsp of butter, drizzle of oil& salt/pepper when half of the water evaporated I added the thinly sliced cut pork into the green beans. I cooked some rice to go with it and poured the pork green beans on top with the sauce and had the potatoes on the side.
Flavor wise it was delicious! However, the pork filets were uneven sizes and three of them were too small for a full dinner. The green bean portions were also a little small and the beans were not very fresh. I had to throw out several (more than I would expect) because they were bad.
I prefer steamed green beans, rather than roasted. I boiled the potatoes in shallow water for 10 mins in a large pot; then, put the gr beans in a steamer basket on top for 10 mins more. Mashed the potatoes and used the pork pan-sauce for gravy. Yum!
I love Thyme (my husband not as much) so we used less when cooking and I just added a bit to mine. The green beans were so delicious and so were the roasted potatoes. We are sold on roasted veggies and potatoes. We never did that before Hello Fresh.
Loved the honey thyme sauce. The pork was moist and tender. The green beans and potatoes were still firm though. Overall great meal.
Entire family loved this one! The pork was moist and tender, beans and potatoes were so good, and the honey thyme flavor was just over the top! A definite family favorite !!
Great recipe and came out delish. Baking the pork filets was a good move. Did not use a lot of honey as we prefer savory dishes, and used an additional clove of garlic
Excellent flavors. The pork tenderloin is always amazing. The glaze is great albeit we switch out the thyme, which my partner doesn't care for, to italian seasoning. Key for potatoes is to chop them small.
Roasting the green beans isn't the greatest method for cooking them. For the pork there's about 2 times too much thyme in the recipe and it could use a little more honey. My suggestion would be remove half of the thyme for the pork and replace it with an italian seasoning for the potatoes.
The honey thyme on the pork is divine! I actually baste the pork in the sauce as it cooks towards the end. Which is way more better and delicious. Definitely recreating this again.
