Directions
Pork Tenderloin with Lemon Honey Butter

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
[1] Heat the butter in an OVENPROOF skillet over medium heat. Add the honey, thyme and lemon juice, stirring well.
[2] Season the pork with salt and pepper and place in the skillet. Cook until the underside is browned, about 5 minutes. Turn the pork and cook until the other side is browned, another 5 minutes. Lower the heat, if needed.
[3] Place the pan in the oven and roast until the pork is just cooked through, 7-10 minutes. Transfer the pork to a plate.
[4] Add water to the pan and stir over medium heat,
scraping up all of the browned bits from the sides of the pan. Simmer until the sauce is reduced, about 5 minutes. Slice the pork in thin, diagonal slices and serve with the sauce drizzled over the top.

New Potatoes and Green Beans
[1] In a medium saucepan, add enough water to cover the potatoes. Add salt and sugar. Cover and let boil for a few minutes; reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until potatoes are almost done.

[2] Add the beans, return to a boil and cook for about 4-5 minutes or until the beans are crisp-tender but still bright green. Drain, return to the hot pot and toss with garlic and butter. Add salt and pepper and serve.
