Herb Crusted Pork Loin

Filed under Pork

Titled "Herb Crusted Pork Tenderloin" in the file, but it's a 4-pound boneless loin.

Ingredients

4 lb Pork loin, boneless, fat left on
1 tbsp Salt
2 tbsp Olive oil
4 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Dried thyme, or 2 teaspoons fresh leaves, minced
1 tsp Dried basil, or 2 teaspoons fresh leaves
1 tsp Rosemary, dried (or 2 teaspoons fresh, minced)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Place the pork on a rack in a roasting pan.
Combine the remaining ingredients and massage over the pork, covering all the meat and fat.
Roast 30 minutes, then reduce to 425 degrees F and roast another hour, until an instant-read thermometer reads 155 degrees F. Let sit about 20 minutes before carving; it keeps cooking as it rests.
