Before You Start
Pat the pork dry, dice the pepper and zucchini, trim the green beans, mince the garlic, and warm the rice.
How To Make It
- Season and sear the pork tenderloin in a pan with the olive oil over medium high, 8 to 10 minutes, turning to brown all sides, until it reaches 145°F in the center, then set it aside to rest.
- Add the bell pepper, zucchini, and green beans to the same pan and cook, 6 to 7 minutes, until softened and lightly charred.
- Stir in the cumin and garlic and cook, about 1 minute, until fragrant, then squeeze in the lime off the burner.
- Slice the pork and serve it with the vegetables over the brown rice, finished with the cilantro.
Fix It: If the pork is charred outside but under 145°F inside, lower the heat and cover the pan to finish it gently.
Air Fryer
- Heat the air fryer to 380F.
- Add the ingredients you would cook on the stove or in the oven in a single layer, without crowding the basket.
- Cook for about 18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway, until cooked through and lightly crisp.
- Let it rest a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
