Ingredients
FOR THE PORK LOIN
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3– pound pork loin
FOR THE HONEY GARLIC GLAZE
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium gluten free soy sauce
FOR THE SPICE RUB
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
FOR THE VEGETABLES
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound butternut squash, peeled, seeds cleaned out, and cut into 1-inch cubes (you can also buy pre-cut butternut squash)
- 1 pound brussels sprouts, cut in half
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375˚F.
-
Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and set aside.
-
Pat dry pork loin with paper towels.
-
In a small mixing bowl combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper.
-
Lightly spray pork loin with cooking spray. This will make it easier for the spice mix to stick.
-
Take the spice mix and rub it all over the pork loin.
-
Heat olive oil over medium heat and sear the pork loin until browned on all sides; about 3 to 5 minutes per side.
-
Transfer pork loin to previously prepared baking sheet, fat-layer side up; set aside.
-
In a bowl, combine garlic, honey, soy sauce, mustard and oil; whisk until well combined. If too thick, add a bit more oil or soy sauce. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the sauce to use for the vegetables.
-
Brush remaining honey mixture over the pork loin.
-
Roast for 25 minutes.
-
In the meantime, toss the vegetables with a tablespoon of olive oil and the reserved honey mixture.
-
Pull pork roast out of the oven and add the vegetables all around it in one layer. Tent a piece of foil over the pork so the top doesn’t burn, but the inside continues to cook.
-
Put back in the oven and continue to cook for 25 to 30 more minutes, or until internal temperature of the pork loin reaches 145˚F. Use an Instant Read Thermometer to check for doneness.
-
Stir vegetables half way through cooking.
-
Remove baking sheet from oven and loosely cover meat and veggies with foil; let rest 10 minutes.
-
Cut the pork in slices and serve with veggies.
Notes
Succulent roasted Pork Loin prepared with a spice rub plus a honey-dijon garlic sauce that will have you coming back for more and more! I like to add seasonal veggies, like Brussels sprouts and butternut squash, to make it a complete meal, all in just one pan.
