Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds boneless pork loin roast
- 2 tablespoons Chinese five spice powder
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, mix the Chinese five spice powder, brown sugar, kosher salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Pat the boneless pork loin roast dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the seasoning stick better.
Rub the olive oil evenly over all sides of the pork roast.
Generously coat the pork roast with the five spice mixture, patting it onto the surface to adhere.
Place the seasoned pork roast on a roasting rack in a shallow baking dish, fat side up.
Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, ensuring it does not touch bone or fat.
Roast the pork in the preheated oven for about 75-90 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Once the temperature is reached, remove the pork roast from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Slice the pork roast into 1/2-inch thick slices and serve hot. Pair with your favorite side dishes like roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
