This turned out really good for me. I had a bone in pork loin roast and was amazed at how the flavor of the onion, peppers and herbs permeated clear into the middle of the roast(halved the amt of the onion mixture. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and full of a wonderful pork/white wine flavor.The pork was moist and will make an amazing sandwhich this week. I will deffinately make this again.

This is a really tasty as well as economical dish. I substituted 2 thick hunks of boneless pork sirlion chops totaling just under 2 lbs. I halved the onion mixture ingredients, added basil, and used 1.5 lbs of baby potatoes. Yum! Everything fit perfectly in my 8X8 baking dish. The pork was juicy and flavorful and the potatoes were to die for. I did put the potatoes back in the oven to roast them a little more while the pork rested. The only thing I might change next time is to add a little more liquid to the pan so there is more of that tasty juice to spoon over the meat.
I served Melissa d'Arabian's Kale Slaw with this. I look forward to trying Rachael's Creamy Mushrooms and Kale that she paired with this dish another time but, we really enjoyed the fresh taste and texture of the raw Kale Slaw with the pork and potatoes. Looking forward to using the leftovers for a sandwich tomorrow. Yummo!

Despite all the chopping, the meat really didn't have that great of a flavor. I even let it "marinate" and added some olive oil to the topping to try and impart some of the flavor to the pork. It was just OK. I'm giving it 3 stars because the potatoes were really good (I tossed them with olive oil and thyme first and the meat was very good in the chili recipe. The pork portion of the dish would only get one star, though. Otherwise, this is a good "week in a day" start! I also made the mushroom dish, except with spinach and it was the first time mushrooms actually tasted kind of good. So thanks Rachael! You do great work :
