Ingredients
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 2 x pork loin steaks, trimmed of excess fat
- 4 spring onions, chopped into short lengths
- 225g runner beans, trimmed and thinly sliced
- zest and juice of ½ lemon
- 2 tbsp clear honey
- 1 x 80g pack watercress
- 1 x 250g pack cooked red and white quinoa (or grain of your choice)
Step by step
- Heat the oil in a nonstick frying pan. Season the pork steaks and fry over a high heat for 11⁄2-2 minutes each side to brown. Reduce the heat to medium and add the spring onions, cooking for 2 minutes, turning the pork again to cook through evenly.
- Meanwhile, cook the runner beans in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes until tender, then drain.
- Mix the lemon zest and juice with the honey and 1 tablespoon of water, plus some seasoning. Pour into the pan and turn the pork in the sauce to glaze, as it reduces slightly. Stir in the runner beans and the watercress, letting the watercress wilt slightly.
- Heat the quinoa according to the pack instructions, then serve with the pork steaks and greens.
