Before You Start
Pull the pork from the fridge, heat the oven to 400°F, dice the sweet potato, trim the green beans, and rinse the spinach so everything is ready.
How To Make It
- Toss the sweet potato and green beans with the olive oil and garlic and spread them in one layer on a tray.
- Roast, about 20 minutes, until the sweet potato is tender and the green beans are lightly blistered.
- Meanwhile, sear the pork tenderloin in a hot pan, 3 to 4 minutes a side, until deep golden and it reaches 145°F in the center, then rest it 3 minutes.
- While the pork rests, wilt the spinach in the same pan with a splash of water, 2 to 3 minutes, until glossy and collapsed.
- Slice the pork and plate it with the sweet potato, green beans, and spinach, and serve.
Fix It: If the pork is browning too fast but not yet at 145°F, lower the heat and cover the pan so it cooks through without burning.
Air Fryer
- Heat the air fryer to 380F.
- Add the ingredients you would cook on the stove or in the oven in a single layer, without crowding the basket.
- Cook for about 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway, until cooked through and lightly crisp.
- Let it rest a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
