Ingredients

1 4-pound boneless pork rib roast
1 tablespoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/2 cup honey
5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
7 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 cup (about) canned low-salt chicken broth or water
2 large bunches Swiss chard, thick stems removed, leaves coarsely chopped (about 10 cups)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place pork, fat side up, in large glass baking dish. Rub pork with salt and pepper. Whisk honey, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, 4 tablespoons olive oil, coriander, and thyme in small bowl. Pour over pork; cover pork loosely with foil. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour, basting occasionally.

    Step 2

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Transfer pork to roasting pan; reserve marinade. Roast pork 15 minutes. Spoon 1/4 of reserved marinade over pork. Add 1/4 cup broth to roasting pan. Roast pork 15 minutes; spoon remaining marinade over. Add 1/4 cup broth to pan. Roast until instant-read thermometer inserted into center of pork registers 150°F, about 40 minutes longer. Add 1/4 cup broth to pan, stirring browned bits from bottom.

    Step 3

    Transfer pork to platter; tent with foil. Strain pan juices into 1-cup measuring cup; add enough broth to measure 1 cup liquid. Pour into small saucepan; keep warm over low heat. Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chard and toss to coat. Cover and cook until chard is tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Mix in remaining lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Spread greens on platter. Slice pork and arrange atop greens. Pour pan juices over.
