Instructions
6 steps
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Ensure the oven is fully heated for even cooking.Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, paprika, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, and Dijon mustard.
Mix well until all ingredients are combined.Marinate the Pork
Rub the marinade all over the pork loin, ensuring it is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the fridge for better flavor.
Use a resealable bag for easier marinating.Sear the Pork
In a hot skillet, sear the pork loin on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Searing locks in the juices and enhances flavor.Roast the Pork
Transfer the seared pork loin to a baking dish, pour the chicken broth around it, and roast in the oven for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Baste occasionally with the broth for added moisture.Rest and Serve
Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
