Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs pork loin
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels and place it on a clean cutting board.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a paste.
Rub the herb paste evenly over the entire surface of the pork loin.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet or roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sear the pork loin on all sides until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
Remove the skillet from the heat and pour the chicken broth and lemon juice into the pan around the pork loin.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork loin for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and loosely cover the pork loin with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the pork loin into 1/2-inch thick slices and serve with the pan juices drizzled over the top. Enjoy!
