Ingredients
Instructions
- Adjust oven racks to top and middle positions and preheat to 450°F. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on top rack, tossing halfway, until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
- Pat pork dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add pork and sear, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 4-8 minutes. Meanwhile, mince half the garlic (use all for 4 servings). Once browned, transfer pork to one side of a second baking sheet.
- Toss broccoli with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on the opposite side of the baking sheet from the pork.
- Place pork and broccoli on middle rack. Roast until pork is cooked through and broccoli is tender, 10-12 minutes for pork and 12-15 minutes for broccoli. Transfer pork to a cutting board to rest while broccoli finishes. Thinly slice pork crosswise.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in the pan used for pork over medium heat. Add minced garlic and thyme; cook until fragrant, 20-30 seconds. Stir in stock concentrates, honey and ¼ cup water (½ cup for 4 servings). Simmer, scraping up any browned bits, until reduced by half, 3-4 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon butter (2 for 4) until melted. Season with salt and pepper. If sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water.
- Divide pork, broccoli and potatoes between plates. Drizzle pork with sauce and serve.
Recipe Tips
For the best sear, make sure the pork is patted very dry before seasoning.
If your broccoli is done before the pork, remove it from the oven to prevent overcooking.
