Ingredients

2 garlic cloves, minced (1 tablespoon)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage leaves or 1 teaspoon dried sage
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (2 1/2-pound) center cut boneless pork loin, trimmed of all visible fat
1/2 cup Parsley Shallot Sauce, recipe follows

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Mash the garlic and salt together with a fork until it forms a coarse paste. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in the oil, fresh herbs and freshly ground pepper. Rub the garlic-herb paste all over the pork. Transfer the pork to a roasting pan and roast for 1 1/4 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer the roast to a carving board and let rest for 15 minutes. Carve the pork into slices and serve with the sauce.

Parsley Shallot Sauce:

1 1/2 cups lightly packed flat-leaf parsley leaves

2 tablespoons coarsely chopped shallot

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons water

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree.

Yield: 1/2 cup

This recipe is deserving of the 5* rating... both the roast and the sauce are wonderful. I served it w/Ellie's Celery... Root-Apple puree which is also yummy! Also served it w/roasted parmesan green beans and a Waldorf salad.Read more

Delicious & super easy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I brined (soak in water w/ 1/2 cup salt) the pork for about 5 hrs prior to roasting it in the oven. I also used dried herbs... and skipped the sauce. For my "gravy" I scraped the garlicky bits left over in the pan and tossed in a frying pan with some olive oil and a dash of balsamic vinegar. The meat was so tender and flavorful...served it with corn on the cob and mashed potatoes. This was one of the easiest and most delicious meals ever - thanks Ellie!Read more

Flavorful and moist
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This turned out very moist and succulent. The roast was very flavorful. The Parsley Shallot sauce was very good, and unique,... but you don't need too much of it. I served with roasted red potatoes and steamed green beans. I also paired it with a maibock to round out the herbal flavors.Read more

Yum!

Came out perfect! The shallot sauce was good, but you don't really need it. We'll be having this for supper again.
