Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Pork loin
- 6 Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and lemon juice. Mix well to form a paste.
Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels and place it on a clean cutting board.
Rub the garlic paste evenly over the entire surface of the pork loin, making sure to coat all sides.
Place the pork loin in a roasting pan. Arrange the rosemary and thyme sprigs around the pork for added flavor.
Pour the chicken or vegetable broth into the bottom of the roasting pan to keep the meat moist during cooking.
Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.
Roast the pork loin for approximately 50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes of cooking to allow the pork to brown slightly.
Once cooked, remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice the pork loin into 1/2-inch thick pieces and serve warm. Optionally, spoon some of the pan juices over the meat for extra flavor.
