Roasted Pork Loin is an incredibly easy recipe that any home cook can master. Simple enough for weeknight dinner, yet fancy enough for social gatherings. We love serving this main dish with apples, onions and fingerling potatoes for the ultimate feast. Oh, and leftovers taste incredible in sandwiches with our Alabama White Sauce. Hello versatility!
I can’t begin to explain how juicy and flavorful this recipe is.
Pork Loin is a great cut of meat that roasts up beautifully… thanks to it’s built-in fat cap! Fat is flavor, friends (so don’t be afraid of it). Prepping this meat couldn’t be easier: simply rub the exterior with seasonings, fresh herbs, and That’s Tasty’s Organic Garlic Purée. Poof, you’re done. Pop that bad boy in the oven and fill your house with the smells of comfort-food bliss.
You know what makes this dish spectacular?
The garlic-y crust that forms on top of the meat. Make sure to cook the pork loin with the fat side up and you’ll be amazed with the results. I personally like to rub the fat with a heaping squeeze of garlic purée before sticking it into the oven. The purée seeps into the fat as it cooks and flavors the whole roast. That stuff is pure gold… so flavorful.
