Prep: 5 Min Cook: 35 Min Calories: 580

• 12oz potatoes
• 1tsp garlic powder
• 1oz dried cranberries
• 6oz green beans
• 1shallot
• 1TBS flour
• 10oz pork chops
• 1oz chicken stock concentrate
• 4tsp cooking oil
• ½TBS butter

Prep:

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450°F. Wash and dry produce. Dice potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Trim green beans if necessary. Halve, peel, and thinly slice shallot.

Roast veggies:

Toss potatoes on one side of a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, half the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss green beans on empty side with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 18-20 minutes.

Tip: If green beans are done before potatoes, carefully remove from sheet and leave potatoes roasting. Tent with foil to keep warm if needed.

Prep pork:

Place flour in a shallow dish, season with salt and pepper. Pat pork dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Working with one piece at a time, press pork into seasoned flour until fully coated.

Cook pork:

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add coated pork (shake off excess flour first), cook until browned and cooked through, 4- to 6-minutes per side.

Tip: Lower heat if pork begins to brown too quickly. Turn off heat, transfer pork to a plate. Wipe out pan and let cool slightly.

Make sauce:

Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-low heat. Add shallot, cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, 2- to 3-minutes. Add dried cranberries, stock concentrate, and ¼ cup water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 2- to 4-minutes. Turn off heat, stir in ½ TBS butter. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

Finish & serve:

Add pork to pan with sauce and turn to coat. Divide pork, potatoes, and green beans between plates. Spoon remaining sauce over pork. Serve. Add chicken or steak to pan with sauce and turn to coat.
