Honey Thyme Pork Tenderloin

This is one of my favorite recipes from Hello Fresh.  If you haven't tried their meal boxes yet, you're missing out!

4 red potatoes
12 oz pork tenderloin
2 garlic cloves
2 heads of broccoli florets
1 tsp dried thyme
1 oz chicken stock concentrate
2 tsp honey

Wash and dry all produce.

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.

Line a sheet pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.

Dice potatoes into 1/2" pieces.  Toss them onto the sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast on the top rack for 20 - 25 minutes.

Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towel and 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.

While the pork is cooking, line another sheet pan with foil.  Mince the garlic and set aside.  

Once the pork is browned, transfer it to one side of the second baking sheet.

Cut the broccoli into bite-size pieces.  Place on the opposite side of the baking sheet from pork.  Toss with a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.  Top with 1/2 of the minced garlic.

Transfer the pork and broccoli to the middle rack.  Roast until pork is cooked through and broccoli is tender, 12 - 15 minutes.  Once done, transfer to a cutting board to rest. 

While your pork is cooking, whisk together stock concentrate, honey and 1/4 cup of water in a measuring cup.  Heat a drizzle of oil in the pan used for the pork over medium heat.  Add the remaining garlic and thyme.  Cook until fragrant.  Stir in the contents of the measuring cup.  Simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until reduced by half, 3 - 4 minutes.  Stir in 1 Tbsp butter until melted.

Slice the pork and plate with potatoes and broccoli.  Drizzle the pork with sauce and serve.
