Prep: 10 Cook: 30

• 10oz pork tenderloin
• 12oz potatoes
• 8oz green beans
• 2TBS cream cheese
• 1/8tsp garlic powder
• 3TBS parmesan cheese
• salt & pepper
• olive oil
• balsamic vinegar
• butter

Prep pork:

Preheat oven to 450°F with a rack in the lower third. Cut each piece of pork horizontally (parallel to cutting board) almost completely in half. Open pork up like a book and place pork between sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet or heavy skillet, pound each to an even ⅛-inch thickness.

Season pork:

Finely grate Parmesan, if necessary. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, half of the Parmesan, ⅛ tsp granulated garlic, and a pinch each of salt and pepper, mash with a fork until combined. Spread half of the mixture over one side of each piece of pork. Roll up and transfer, seam-sides down, to a plate. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Roast potatoes & beans:

Scrub potatoes, then cut into ¼-inch thick wedges. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss with 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Roast on lower oven rack until just tender, 12–15 minutes. Trim ends from green beans. Remove baking sheet from oven; add green beans, and drizzle with oil, stirring gently to combine with roasted potatoes.

Brown pork:

Brush pork lightly with oil; season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add pork; cook until browned in spots, 4–5 minutes. Transfer to baking sheet and top with remaining Parmesan. Roast on lower rack until pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and beans are tender, 8–10 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate to rest.

Make sauce & serve:

Heat 1 teaspoon oil in same skillet over medium. Remove from heat and whisk in ⅛ teaspoon granulated garlic, 1 tablespoon each of water and vinegar, and 1 tablespoon butter until melted, season with salt, pepper, and ½ teaspoon sugar. Slice parmesan-stuffed pork, then spoon pan sauce over top. Serve with green beans and potatoes alongside. Enjoy!
