Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 (about 425g each) pork fillets
  • 4 (about 80g) slices pancetta
  • 2 small garlic cloves
  • 60g Spanish anchovy stuffed green olives (Always Fresh brand)
  • 400g green beans
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) chicken style liquid stock
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) strained fresh orange juice
  • 4.60 gm extra virgin olive oil, extra
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C. Grease a roasting pan with a light brush of oil. Tuck the tail end of the pork under to ensure even thickness. Brush the entire pork with oil and season with pepper. Heat a non-stick frying pan over high heat, then sear the pork for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Place the pork in a greased pan and brush it with the remaining oil. Roast in a preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the juices run clear when pierced with a skewer.
  • As the pork cooks, sear the pancetta in the pan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes per side or until crispy. Place on a paper towel to drain. Take the pan off the heat, then crush the garlic, slice the olives thickly, and add them on top of the beans.
  • Place the pork on a warmed plate, cover loosely with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes. Pour any pan juices from the pork into a frying pan. Saute garlic over medium heat for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in stock and orange juice, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes until reduced by half. Remove from heat and stir in olives. Keep warm until serving.
  • After blanching the beans in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until they turn bright green, drain well and place them back in the saucepan. Drizzle with extra oil, season with pepper, toss to coat well, cover, and set aside.
  • Tear pancetta into large pieces. Cut pork into thick slices. Arrange beans on warm plates, place pork on top, and drizzle with sauce. Finish with pancetta on top and a sprinkle of pepper.
