Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds pork loin
- 0.25 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon thyme, chopped
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels and season it all over with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme to create the glaze.
Place the seasoned pork loin on a roasting rack set over a baking dish or pan.
Brush the mustard glaze evenly over the pork loin, ensuring all sides are coated.
Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the pork loin. This will help you monitor doneness during cooking.
Transfer the pork loin to the oven and roast for about 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Every 20 minutes, baste the pork loin with the juices that accumulate in the pan to keep it moist.
Once the pork loin has reached the desired temperature, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the pork loin into thick, even portions and serve warm with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
