Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs pork loin
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 8 pieces fresh sage leaves
- 3 large apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tbsp butter, unsalted
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the pork loin all over with 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet or roasting pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork loin on all sides until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken broth to the skillet and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan and release any browned bits. Remove from heat.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into wedges. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks.
In a mixing bowl, toss the apples and potatoes with 3 tablespoons of melted butter, 0.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of honey. Add the sage leaves and mix until combined.
Arrange the apples, potatoes, and sage around the pork loin in the roasting pan.
Pour the deglazed broth mixture over the pork and vegetables.
Transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven and roast for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork loin reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve the sliced pork loin alongside the roasted apples and potatoes, spooning some of the pan juices over the top for extra flavor.
