Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Pork loin roast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork loin roast dry with paper towels and set it aside on a cutting board.
In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and brown sugar.
Rub the olive oil all over the pork roast to coat it evenly.
Sprinkle the spice mixture generously over the pork, rubbing it in with your hands to cover every surface.
Place the pork roast in a roasting pan or a cast-iron skillet, fat-side up.
Pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the pan to help keep the meat moist during cooking.
Roast the pork in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
About 10 minutes before the roast is done, drizzle lime juice over the top for added tanginess.
Remove the pork roast from the oven and tent it with foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the pork roast into thick slices and serve with your favorite sides. Spoon some of the pan drippings over the top for extra flavor.
