Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, rosemary, thyme, sage, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until you create a paste.
Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels. Place the pork loin on a clean cutting board.
Rub the herb paste evenly over all sides of the pork loin, ensuring it is well-coated.
Transfer the pork loin to a roasting pan, fat side up.
Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the pork loin, making sure it's not touching any bones.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145Β°F (63Β°C).
Once done, remove the pork loin from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Slice the pork loin into thick slices and serve warm with your choice of Whole30-compliant sides.
