This cozy dinner is “relaxed” in recipe form: It’s quick, uses one pan, and doesn’t mind if there’s no fresh rosemary on hand. One teaspoon of dried is just fine. In place of the pork chops in this recipe, you can also use a 20-ounce pork tenderloin and cut it into medallions.

Ingredients

Rosemary

2 tsp, chopped

Garlic

2 clove(s), finely chopped, divided

Table salt

¾ tsp, divided

Black pepper

½ tsp, divided

Uncooked lean boneless pork chop

20 oz, 4 (5-oz chops), center-cut, trimmed

Olive oil

2 tsp, divided

Balsamic vinegar

2 Tbsp

Canned cannellini beans

31 oz, 2 (15½-oz can), rinsed and drained

Radicchio

6 oz, (from about 1 small head), sliced

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, stir the rosemary, half the garlic, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp black pepper. Rub all over the pork chops.
  2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp oil over medium. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sides of the pork chops registers 145°F, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
  3. In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tsp oil. Add the remaining garlic clove and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the vinegar, then the beans. Cover and cook until the beans are heated through, about 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat. Add the radicchio and remaining ¼ tsp salt and ¼ tsp black pepper and stir just until the radicchio is slightly wilted. Stir any accumulated juices from the pork into the beans.
  4. Divide the beans and radicchio among 4 plates. Top each plate with 1 pork chop.
  5. Serving size: 1 pork chop and generous 1 cup bean mixture
