Heat oven to 450u00b0. Heat a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over high heat. Using tongs to turn, brown the pork well on all sides, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. On one side of the pork, spread the potatoes in a single layer. Brush the potatoes with the reserved rosemary mixture. Pile the green beans on the other side of the pork and turn them to coat with the fat from the skillet.

Using a sharp knife, slice in between the bones of the pork rack to create two chops. Place the chops on a platter with the potatoes and green beans on the side. Spoon some of the pan juices over the pork and garnish with sprigs of rosemary. Serve with a medium-bodied red wine.
