Recipe: Garlic Infused Herb Crusted Pork Loin

As promised in my post earlier this week about #CostcoPork savings in celebration of National Pork Month, here is my recipe for my famous Garlic Infused Herb Crusted Pork Loin.

Garlic Infused Herb Crusted Pork Loin

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Serves: 8 to 10

Ingredients:

• 2½ pound boneless Pork Loin (currently save $2.50 at Costco in celebration of National Pork Month)
• 8 cloves garlic
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1.5 t. rosemary
• 1.5 t. oregano
• 1.5 t. garlic salt
• 1.5 t. black pepper
• 1.5 t. onion powder
• 1.5 t. sage
• 1.5 t. thyme
• 1.5 t. parsley

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

In a small bowl, combine rosemary leaves, garlic salt, onion powder, sage, thyme, parsley, oregano and pepper muddle together. Slice holes into the roast on all sides, top, and bottom and plug with coarsely chopped garlic cloves.  Spread olive oil on all sides of roast.  Place roast, fat side up, in shallow roasting pan large enough to hold roast with three inches room around all sides. Roast 15 minutes.

Reduce oven to 300 degrees F. and continue roasting  until internal temperature of roast reaches 145 degrees F..

Remove roast from oven and let rest 10 minutes. Slice roast and arrange on platter.
