Cumin Roasted Pork Loin
Ingredients:
- One 2½ lb. pork loin, trimmed, no bone
- 1 Tbsp ground cumin
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 1 rosemary sprig, chopped
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 cup diced canned tomatoes, drained
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Season pork with cumin, salt, pepper and rosemary.
On the stovetop, heat a large sauté pan with the olive oil over medium high.
Sear the pork loin, fat side down, until golden, about 4-5 minutes. Flip the pork loins over, and place the pan into oven for 40 minutes (or until an instant-read thermometer reads 145 degrees).
Remove pork from pan and set aside for 10 to 15 minutes.
Return pan to the stovetop and add the garlic slices.οΎ Sauté garlic over medium high heat for 4-5 minutes. Add chicken broth and deglaze the pan, stirring up any brown bits. Add tomatoes, stir and reduce heat to low so that sauce can thicken.
Slice pork into thin slices. Transfer slices to a serving plate and pour sauce over pork.
Serves 6.
