Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450ËšF. Wash and dry all produce. Halve potatoes. Add potatoes, 1 tbsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 12-14 min. Drain potatoes well.
While potatoes boil, strip rosemary leaves from sprig, then finely chop. Add rosemary sprig to the pot with potatoes. Trim snap peas. Cut pineapple into 1/4-inch pieces. Whisk together apricot spread, Dijon, soy sauce, half the Gravy Spice Blend (use all for 4 ppl) and 1/2 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl) in a medium bowl. (NOTE: This is your apricot sauce mixture.)
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, pat pork dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and half the garlic powder. When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then pork. Pan-fry until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. Remove the pan from heat. Transfer pork to an unlined baking sheet. Roast in the top of the oven until cooked through, 10-12 min.**Carefully wipe the pan clean.
While pork roasts, carefully wipe the same pan clean, then heat over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then swirl to melt. Add snap peas. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min. Sprinkle remaining garlic powder over top. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Transfer snap peas to a plate. Cover to keep warm.
Meanwhile, heat a medium pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then pineapple. Cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 30 sec. Add apricot mixture. Bring to a simmer. Once simmering, cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. (TIP: Stir in any pork juices from the baking sheet!)Remove the pot from heat. Cover to keep warm. Meanwhile, heat the same pan (from step 4) over medium-high.
When the pan is hot, add 1 1/2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then swirl until melted. Add potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, 3-4 min. Add chopped rosemary. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir until fragrant, 30 sec. Sprinkle Parmesan over potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until Parmesan melts, 1-2 min. Divide potatoes, pork and snap peas between plates. Spoon pineapple-apricot sauce over pork.
