Transfer the parsnips and cooking liquid to a food processor and process until smooth.

Return the mixture to the pan and cover to keep warm.

Meanwhile, combine rosemary, thyme and 2 cloves garlic on a cutting board.

Rub pork with 1 tablespoon oil and roll in the herb mixture.

Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add the pork.

Transfer the pan to the oven.

Roast until the internal temperature of the pork registers 145F, 12 to 18 minutes.

Transfer the pork to a clean cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.

Add kale and cook, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the remaining 1 clove garlic and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Slice the pork and serve with the parsnip puree and kale.
