Roasted Pork Loin With Pineapple Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• For the brine: Combine the salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, coriander seeds, and 2 cups warm water in a large bowl. Stir until the salt dissolves. Add 6 cups cold water. Add the pork, cover, and refrigerate overnight (the pork should be submerged in the liquid).
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the herb rub: Mix the garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl. Remove the pork from the brine and pat it dry (discard the brine). Spread the herb mixture over the pork loin, making sure you coat all sides of the loin.
• For the pork: Heat the olive oil in a medium, heavy saute pan over high heat. Add the pork and sear until browned, 4 minutes. Carefully turn the pork over and sear until browned, another 4 minutes. Meanwhile, add the prunes and pearl onions to a 10 by 7 by 2-inch glass baking dish, creating a bed for the loin. Transfer the seared pork loin to the baking dish (making sure the loin fits in the baking dish, leaving a 1-inch border on every side).
• Add the wine to the same saute pan used to sear the pork and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan to remove the browned bits, until almost evaporated, about1 minute. Stir in the pineapple juice and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the pork. Season the prunes and onions with salt and pepper.
• Place the pork in the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees F, about 1 hour, basting with the pan juices every 20 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let it stand for 10 minutes. Slice the pork into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices and arrange on a platter. Top the pork slices with the pearl onions, prunes, and sauce.
• Cook's Note: In place of a 3 1/2-pound pork loin, you can use 2 (1 1/4-pound) pork tenderloins. The total cooking time will be about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Mix tomato paste with chili powder. Combine with orange juice, lime juice and oil in a double resealable bag. Add tenderloin and marinate at least 3 hours. Heat a large pan over high heat to the smoking point, 3 to 4 minutes. Brown pineapple 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add pineapple juice and stir 1 minute, scraping up brown bits from pan. Remove pineapple from heat. Combine in a bowl with pepper, onion and basil. Heat a grill or grill pan over high. Coat with cooking spray. Remove pork from marinade; place on grill. (Discard excess marinade.) Reduce heat to medium; cook, turning occasionally, until pork is no longer pink and internal temperature is 160°F 18 to 20 minutes. Let pork rest 5 minutes before slicing. Spoon salsa over pork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Place roast on a rack in a shallow roasting pan, fat side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast 25 minutes., Meanwhile, for glaze, in a small bowl, whisk preserves, mustard and basil; brush half the mixture over roast. Add pineapple to roasting pan. Roast 25-35 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 145°., Remove roast from oven and brush with remaining glaze; tent loosely with foil. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Using a slotted spoon, serve pineapple with pork.

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper; place in a 3- to 4-qt. slow cooker. Whisk together the next 5 ingredients; pour over pork. Cook, covered, on low until a thermometer reads 145° and meat is tender, 2-3 hours., Remove from heat; let stand at least 5 minutes before slicing. Keep warm. Whisk together cornstarch and water; add to cooking juices. Cook until thickened, about 15 minutes. Serve with pork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix honey, Dijon mustard, and black pepper together in a bowl until texture of a paste.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork loin in the hot skillet until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer pork loin to a baking dish. Spread honey paste over entire pork loin. Spread pineapple chunks around pork loin and sprinkle salt over pork loin.
• Place a cooking thermometer into the pork loin and cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Decrease oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Continue cooking until pork is cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Transfer pork loin to a work surface and let rest, 3 to 5 minutes. Blend pineapple chunks and drippings in a blender until sauce is smooth; serve alongside pork loin.

Steps:

• To brine the pork, combine the salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, coriander seeds, bay leaves, and 2 cups warm water in a large bowl. Stir until the salt dissolves. Add 6 cups cold water. Add the pork (the pork should be submerged in the liquid), cover, and refrigerate overnight.
• To cook the pork, preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Mix the garlic, the 2 tablespoons olive oil, and the salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl. Remove the pork from the brine and pat it dry (discard the brine). Spread the herb mixture over the side of the roast that is not covered with fat.
• Heat the remaining 1/2 teaspoon olive oil in a medium-size heavy sauté pan over high heat. Add the pork, fat side down, and sear for 4 minutes, or until browned. Carefully turn the pork over onto the herb-coated side and sear for another 4 minutes, or until browned. Transfer the pork loin to a 10 x 7 x 2-inch glass baking dish (or any dish where it fits leaving a 1-inch border). Add the wine to the same sauté pan you used to sear the pork, and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan to remove the browned bits, for 1 minute, or until almost evaporated. Stir in the pineapple juice and remove from the heat. Pour the mixture over the pork and arrange the pearl onions around the roast.
• Roast the pork, basting with the pan juices every 20 minutes, until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 150°F, about 1 hour and 40 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board, tent it with foil, and let it stand for 10 minutes. Then cut the pork into 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick slices, and top them with the pearl onions and sauce.

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Place pineapple slices on a foil-lined baking sheet.
• In a small bowl, combine hoisin sauce, ginger, garlic, and mustard. Place pork on a broiler pan fitted with a rack. Brush with hoisin mixture; season with salt and pepper.
• Place pork in broiler, about 4 inches from heat; place pineapple in oven. Broil pork until it registers 155 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from broiler (let rest at least 10 minutes before slicing; temperature will rise to 160 degrees as pork sits). Turn pineapple slices; cook until browned in spots, about 10 minutes more.
• Halve pineapple slices; arrange on a platter with sliced pork. Drizzle pork with pan juices; season with salt and pepper. Serve with Quick Ginger Sauce.

Steps:

• Place pork loin in baking pan (I use pyrex).

• Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, remove from heat and set aside.
• Brush pork loin with part of the glaze.
• Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes until meat is tender and inner temperature has reached 160 degrees.
• Brush with glaze several times during baking time.
• Turn pork loin 1 time during baking time and brush underside with glaze.
• Let stand 5 minutes.
• Heat pineapples with remaining juice and remaining glaze and serve with pork loin.
• **Whendraining pineapple squeeze as much juice out as possible!
• I always have a small can of pineapple juice on hand in case there isn't enough juice.
