A delicious and aromatic pork loin roast with a flavorful herb crust, perfect for any occasion.
Place the pork loin in a self-sealing bag.
Ensure the bag is large enough to comfortably hold the pork and the marinade.
In a blender, combine parsley, onion, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
Scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Pour the marinade into the bag with the pork. Seal the bag and massage to coat the pork evenly.
Marinate the pork overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the pork inside.
Remove the pork from the bag and discard the marinade. Place the pork on a wire rack inside a roasting pan.
Using a wire rack allows air to circulate around the pork for even cooking.
Roast the pork at 500°F (260°C) for 15 minutes.
This initial high temperature helps to develop a flavorful crust.
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 155°F (68°C), about 1 hour.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork is cooked to the correct temperature.
Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the pork more tender and flavorful.
