PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SAUTéED BEET GREENS AND ROASTED BEETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Loosely wrap beets in a 12-by-20-inch piece of parchment, then wrap packet in foil.

Reserve 1 beet; halve and slice remaining beets.

• Meanwhile, process the reserved whole beet with 1 tablespoon oil in a food processor until smooth. Pass through a fine sieve lined with cheesecloth into a small bowl (to yield 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon juice); discard solids. Add mustard, 2 teaspoons vinegar, and 2 tablespoons oil; whisk to combine.
• In a large skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Cook garlic, stirring, until fragrant and golden, about 1 minute. Add beet greens and 1 teaspoon salt; season with pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until greens are wilted and tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and discard garlic. Add sliced beets and re maining 1 tablespoon vinegar, and toss to combine. Sprinkle with pine nuts.
• To serve, drizzle beet vinaigrette on each of four plates, dividing evenly, then top with pork and beet greens.
