Ingredients
- 3–4 lb boneless pork loin roast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp dried)
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme (or 1 tsp dried)
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: 1 cup chicken broth or apple cider (for basting and extra moisture)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels to help create a good sear.
Step 2: Season the Roast
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper into a paste. Rub the mixture all over the pork loin, coating it evenly on all sides.
Step 3: Sear for Flavor (Optional but Recommended)
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork for 2–3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. This step adds depth of flavor and helps lock in juices.
Step 4: Roast
Transfer the pork loin to a roasting pan or baking dish. If desired, add chicken broth or apple cider to the bottom of the pan to keep the meat moist and create a flavorful base for a pan sauce.
Roast uncovered for 50–70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) at the thickest part. Baste once or twice with the pan juices during cooking for extra moisture.
Step 5: Rest and Serve
Remove from the oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 10–15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps the pork tender.
Slice into 1/2-inch pieces and serve with your favorite sides!
