Herb Marinated Pork Loin Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Place the pork loin in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour before cooking.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Transfer the pork loin to a baking dish; pour marinade over the pork.
• Cook in the preheated oven until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 45 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the tenderloins on a sheet pan and pat them dry with paper towels. Combine the rosemary, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the tenderloins all over with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle all sides with the herb mixture. If there is a thinner "tail," fold it underneath so the tenderloin is an even thickness throughout. Wrap the tenderloins completely with a single layer of prosciutto. (I place the prosciutto sideways with the ends wrapping under the tenderloins.) Tie in several places with kitchen string to hold the prosciutto and the "tail" in place.
• Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the end of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees F for medium rare and 145 degrees F for medium. Cover the tenderloins tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Slice diagonally in thick slices and serve warm with apple chutney.

Steps:

• Cut a horizontal slit in the pork tenderloin, leaving the halves attached. Rub tenderloin with olive oil.
• Insert garlic into the slit and on onto the fatty part of pork. Press thyme and rosemary into slit. Sprinkle tenderloin with salt and pepper.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place pork on grill. Cook approximately 1 hour, turning every 15 minutes, to a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Crush the garlic with a press or in a mortar. Add the remaining ingredients, except the pork, and make into a paste. Toss the cubed pork with the paste in a bowl or smear onto the whole tenderloin. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
• Coat a large skillet with olive oil and heat until smoking. If using the whole tenderloin, slice it into 1/2-inch slices. Add slices or cubes to the skillet and brown on all sides. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until just done, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste, and add more salt if necessary.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix oil, garlic and seasonings; rub over roast. Arrange carrots and onions on the bottom of a 13x9-in. baking pan. Place roast over vegetables, fat side up. Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour., Preheat oven to 475°. Roast the pork for 20 minutes., Reduce oven setting to 425°. Roast until a thermometer reads 145° and vegetables are tender, 30-40 minutes longer. Remove roast from oven; tent with foil. Let stand 20 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, mustard, and 2 tsp salt in a 1 gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the pork tenderloins and turn to coat with the marinade. Squeeze the air out of the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight, or at least 3 hours. (an idea is to put the bag in a bowl, just in case).
• When you're ready to cook, preheat the grill. Be sure to brush the grill with some oil to prevent the pork from sticking. Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and discard the marinade but leave herbs clinging to meat.
• Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, then grill, turning a few times to brown on all sides, for15-25 minutes-until the meat registers about 137 degrees at the thickest part.
• Transfer the tenderloins to a platter and cover tightly with aluminum foil. LET REST FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES. Carve in 1/2 inch thick diagonal slices. The thickest part will be pink; this is just fine. The thinnest parts will be well done(allows something for every taste). Season with salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm or at room temperature with the juices that collect on the platter.
