Garlic Herb Roasted Pork Loin

• 份量: 6 servings
• 准备时间: 15 minutes
• 总时间: 1 hour 10 minutes

配料

3 to 3 1/2 pounds pork loin, trimmed

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened

5 cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth

步骤

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels for better browning. Place on a rimmed roasting pan fitted with a rack. Dry surfaces caramelize more evenly, creating a flavorful crust during roasting.

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, butter, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, paprika, Dijon mustard, onion powder, and lemon zest. Mix until smooth. This paste clings well and seasons every bite.

Rub the herb paste over all sides of the pork loin, pressing gently to adhere. For a deeper flavor, allow the seasoned pork to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. This step ensures even cooking and helps the Garlic Herb Roasted Pork Loin stay juicy.

Pour chicken broth into the pan beneath the rack to prevent drippings from burning. Roast uncovered for 45 to 60 minutes, depending on thickness. Rotate the pan halfway through for even heat exposure.

Insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part. Remove from the oven at 145°F for safe, tender results. Avoid overcooking, as pork loin is lean and dries quickly.

Tent loosely with foil and rest for 10 minutes. Resting redistributes juices for moist slices. Cut against the grain into 1/2-inch slices and serve warm with pan juices spooned over the top. Proper resting completes the Garlic Herb Roasted Pork Loin texture.
