Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Boneless pork loin roast
- 6 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1.5 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary sprigs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pork loin on a clean cutting board. Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly the pork by slicing it horizontally almost all the way through, then open it like a book.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, chopped parsley, and minced garlic. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the inside of the butterflied pork loin.
Carefully roll the pork loin back up, starting from one long side, to enclose the cheese filling. Use kitchen twine to tie the roast securely in 1-inch intervals to keep its shape.
In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, and paprika. Rub this mixture all over the outside of the pork roast.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork roast for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the seared pork roast to the preheated oven in the same skillet or a roasting pan. Roast for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the pork roast from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and the roast to become perfectly tender.
Slice the roast into 1-inch thick slices, garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
