Instructions

Wash produce before use

1

Heat the sweet potatoes

Heat the oven to 425°F. 

Transfer the sweet potatoes to an ovenproof dish and season with salt, pepper, and half the harissa powder, adding more as desired. Bake until heated through, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cook your protein and chard. 

2

Cook your protein

Pat your protein dry with a paper towel (if using shrimp or scallops, rinse and drain, then pat dry). Season with salt and pepper.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add your protein.

 

Steaks: Cook the steaks, turning frequently, until well browned and medium-rare, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the steaks into ½-inch-thick slices. Do not clean the pan. 

 

Chicken: Cook the chicken, turning once, until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking, turning occasionally, until firm and cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the chicken into ½-inch-thick slices. Do not clean the pan. 

 

Fish: Cook the fish until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan.

 

Pork chops: Cook the pork chops, turning frequently, until browned but still faintly pink within, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the pork chops into ½-inch-thick slices. Do not clean the pan. 

3

Cook the chard

In the same pan used for your protein, if dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Warm over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Stir in the chard and garlic (the chard in batches if needed), season with salt and pepper, and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the chard is just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. 

Serve

Transfer your protein, chard, and sweet potatoes to individual plates. Drizzle your protein with as much chimichurri as you like and serve any remaining chimichurri on the side.
