Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Pork loin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 medium Apples
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Chicken stock
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels and season it evenly with salt and black pepper on all sides.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork loin for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Make the glaze by finely chopping the fresh rosemary and mincing the garlic. Peel, core, and dice the apples into small chunks.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add diced apples, garlic, and rosemary, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Add apple cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar, honey, and chicken stock to the skillet. Stir to combine and let simmer for 5 minutes until slightly reduced.
Return the seared pork loin to the skillet, spooning some of the glaze mixture over the top.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 50-60 minutes or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C). Baste the pork with the glaze every 15 minutes.
Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve the pork slices topped with the apple rosemary glaze and enjoy!
