Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pounds pork loin
- 6 fresh garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 cup white wine
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 4 potatoes, quartered
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, finely mince the garlic cloves and combine them with chopped rosemary and thyme, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to create a paste.
Rub the herb and garlic paste all over the pork loin, ensuring to coat it evenly on all sides.
In a large roasting pan, arrange the sliced onion, chopped carrots, and quartered potatoes evenly at the bottom.
Place the seasoned pork loin on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan.
Pour the white wine into the bottom of the roasting pan and cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil.
Roast the pork loin in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes to sear and develop a crust.
After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C), remove the foil, and continue roasting for an additional 40 minutes or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the pork loin from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
Slice the pork loin and serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices. Enjoy your delicious herb and garlic roasted pork loin!
