Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pounds boneless pork loin roast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.33 cup honey
- 0.25 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork loin roast dry with paper towels. Rub the surface evenly with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet or roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and sear the pork loin roast on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme to create the glaze.
Brush half of the glaze evenly over the pork loin, ensuring full coverage. Set the remaining glaze aside.
Transfer the skillet or roasting pan to the preheated oven. Roast the pork loin, uncovered, for 60 minutes.
After 60 minutes, brush the pork with the remaining glaze. Continue roasting for another 20-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when measured with a meat thermometer.
Remove the pork loin from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Slice the pork loin roast into 1-inch thick slices and serve warm. Pair it with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
