Honey Thyme Chicken with Roasted Potatoes & Broccoli
A honey glaze may sound like something that goes with dessert, but mild-tasting pork loves a sweet sauce too... especially one that has a few savory elements in it for contrast. In this recipe, you’ll be stirring an extra-large drizzle of honey into a rich, savory pan sauce, then spooning it onto pork tenderloin (and the roasted potatoes and broccoli served alongside, if you like).

Instructions
- • Adjust racks to top and middle positions
and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash
and dry produce.
• 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
through, until lightly browned and
tender, 20-25 minutes. - • While potatoes roast, 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, peel and mince half the
garlic (all for 4 servings).
• Once pork is browned, transfer to one
side of a second baking sheet.
Swap in chicken for pork; cook
until browned and cooked through,
3-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a
cutting board and tent with foil to
keep warm. (No need to transfer to
a baking sheet!) - • Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if
necessary. Toss with a drizzle of olive
oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on
opposite side of baking sheet from pork.
• Spread broccoli out across entire
baking sheet. - • Transfer sheet with pork and broccoli to
middle rack; roast until pork is cooked
through and broccoli is tender,
12-15 minutes.
• Once pork is done, transfer to a cutting
board to rest. Thinly slice crosswise. - • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for
pork over medium heat. Add minced
garlic and thyme; cook until fragrant,
30 seconds.
• Stir in stock concentrates, honey, and
¼ cup water (1⁄3 cup for 4 servings).
Simmer, scraping up any browned bits
from bottom of pan, until sauce has
reduced and thickened, 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until
melted. Season with salt and pepper.
TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in a
splash or two of water. - • Divide pork, broccoli, and potatoes
between plates. Drizzle pork with sauce
and serve.
Thinly slice chicken crosswise.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
