Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh rosemary.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the glaze.
Trim excess fat from the pork loin and pat it dry with paper towels.
Place the pork loin in a roasting pan or baking dish, then brush the entire surface generously with the honey Dijon glaze.
Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the pork loin for accurate cooking.
Roast the pork loin in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Brush with additional glaze halfway through cooking for added flavor.
Once fully cooked, remove the pork loin from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil.
Let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the pork into medallions, serve with your favorite sides, and enjoy!
