Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Arrange the grapes on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with a tablespoons or two of oil. Sprinkle thyme sprigs over the grapes, along with a small pinch of salt. Roast the grapes for 20 minutes, or until they’re slightly wilted and bursting.

In the meantime, heat the remaining oil in a cast iron (or regular non-stick) skillet over medium-high. Season the pork on both sides with salt and pepper and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side. They’re pretty thin, so they won’t need too long.

Arrange the pork on a serving plate; sprinkle the roasted grapes over the pork and drizzle with any remaining grape juice.

Garnish with fresh oregano and serve with crusty bread and a nice green salad!
