Carls Bad Cravings‘ tenderloin recipe shows off just how versatile pork can be. Brine the tenderloin, dry-rub with a chili mixture, and then sear until brown. Brush the pork with the chili dijon glaze, then place on the green beans, allowing the juices to soak into the vegetables while cooking. After baking, transfer the veggies to a platter and pour remaining juices over the mixture. Cut the pork into thin slices and serve on top.
