Create a wonderfully juicy pork loin roast coated in aromatic herbs. This recipe brings together simple steps for a flavorful centerpiece your friends and family will adore.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (3-4 lb) pork loin roast, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth (optional, for pan)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a paste.
  3. Rub the olive oil all over the surface of the pork loin roast.
  4. Press the herb and garlic mixture firmly onto all sides of the pork roast.
  5. Place the roast in a roasting pan. If desired, pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the pan.
  6. Roast for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C).
  7. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Continue roasting until an internal meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 145°F (63°C). This usually takes about 20 minutes per pound.
  8. Remove the roast from the oven. Tent it loosely with foil and let it rest for at least 10-15 minutes before slicing. Resting keeps the juices inside.
  9. Slice the roast and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can tie the roast with kitchen twine before applying the herb crust.
  • If you prefer a crispier crust, you can skip the resting step for the first 5 minutes of resting time, then tent it loosely with foil.
  • Use fresh herbs for the best, most intense flavor.
