Garlic-Roasted Pork Loin Recipe

Ingredients

1 salt

6
Garlic cloves

1
tablespoon of
Finely chopped fresh sage or 2 teaspoons dried

1
tablespoon of
Finely chopped fresh rosemary or 2 teaspoons dried

1
teaspoon of
Freshly ground black pepper

1
pound of
4- to 5- center-cut pork loin with rack of bones removed but intact OR a 3-/2- to 4- boneless center-cut pork loin

Preparation Instructions

Flavor Step - Using a mortar and pestle or food processor, mash the garlic and salt together. Add the herbs, pepper, and olive oil and blend to form a paste. Rub the paste all over the meat and on the outside of the bones, if using them. Reassemble the roast and tie the bones to the meat at 2-inch intervals or so. If using a boneless roast, rub the paste all over the meat. Marinate the roast, loosely covered, for about 2 hours at room temperature or, preferably, overnight in the refrigerator.

If the pork was refrigerated, take it out about an hour before cooking. Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Lay the roast, bone side down, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan and place it in the center of the oven. Roast for 15 minutes. Turn the heat down to 300ºF and roast for 1-1/2 hours longer. The internal temperature of the roast should reach 145º to 150ºF. Remove the meat from the oven and cut off the string to separate the bones from the meat. Cover the meat loosely with foil and keep warm for 20 minut
