Pork Loin Roast with Garlic and Rosemary

Patricia @ ButterYum

pork.loin.roast.garlic.rosemary_ButterYum

Pork loins are one of the most economical cuts of meat you can purchase. This recipe only takes about an hour in the oven, and it will fill your house with the most amazing garlic and rosemary aroma thanks to the flavorful paste that blankets the roast.

To make the flavorful paste, you’ll need: kosher salt, ground black pepper, garlic paste, olive oil, and dried rosemary.

Grind the dried rosemary in a coffee/spice grinder. If you don’t have a spice grinder, you can pulse the rosemary in a personal beverage blender (like this), or grind it by hand using a mortar and pestle.

One note about coffee/spice grinders - I like to use one that has a removable insert (here’s the one I have) so it can be washed thoroughly.

Place the olive oil, ground rosemary, garlic paste, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Whisk them all together to form a paste.

Spread the paste all over the top of the roast and place the roast on a rack inside a baking dish. Be sure to use a pork loin roast and not a pork tenderloin roast as the cooking time for this recipe was developed for a 3-pound loin roast.

Add 1 cup of water to the baking dish. If you have a probe thermometer (like this), insert it into the side of the roast and bake until an internal temperature of 145F is reached. Remove roast from oven and rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

Keto Sesame Zoodles with Roasted Pork

Patricia @ ButterYum

This delicious, low carb, Keto-friendly recipe is a revision of one I shared several years ago (here). Instead of using asian noodles, I used spiralized zucchini. The zucchini is barely cooked - basically it’s just heated through in the sauce just before serving so it maintains its structural integrity and ever-so-slight crunch. If you don’t have leftover roasted pork loin to add, just omit it and serve the zucchini doused in the tasty sesame sauce as a side dish.

Do you have a spiralizer - there’s just something zen about spiralizing veggies. I love-love-love using it.

Just for the fun of it, I decided to challenge myself and see if I could eat the entire bowl using only chopsticks. I had a great time slurping away and I’m happy to report I was able to finish my lunch without the use of a fork or spoon! I hope you’ll give this yummy recipe a try. Enjoy!
