Prep Time: | Cook Time: | Total Time: | Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients for Roasted Pork Loin

  • 1 (3-pound) pork loin roast, trimmed
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

Instructions to Roast the Perfect Pork Loin

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Position a rack in the center for even cooking.
  2. In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Rub this aromatic paste all over the pork loin.
  3. Place the pork loin on a roasting rack inside a shallow pan. Roast for about 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  4. Transfer the roast to a cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes—this step locks in juices.
  5. While the pork rests, deglaze the roasting pan: pour in the white wine, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add chicken broth and simmer for 3–5 minutes to reduce slightly.
  6. Slice the pork loin into ¾-inch thick medallions and arrange on a platter. Drizzle with the warm pan sauce before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • Extra Crisp: Broil the roast for 2–3 minutes at the end for a golden crust.
  • Herb Swap: Substitute thyme or sage for a flavor twist.
  • Make-Ahead: Prepare the garlic-rosemary paste up to 24 hours ahead to deepen the flavors.

Serving Suggestions

Pair this juicy pork loin with creamy mashed potatoes, roasted root vegetables, or a fresh arugula salad for a complete, comforting meal.

Enjoy your savory pork loin centerpiece that doubles as comfort food and elegant fare.
