CARIBBEAN-SPICED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH PEACH SALSA
I love this recipe because of the depth of flavors and burst of colors. It's quick and easy to make. It's best when peaches are in season, but you could try strawberries or pineapple instead. -Holly Bauer, West Bend, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Put the roast and mojo criollo sauce in a large plastic bag. If the roast is very thick, you may cut it in half before marinating.
- Refrigerate 24-48 hours, turning 2-3 times daily.
- Reserve marinade.
- Heat oil in a large skillet and lightly brown the roast, 2-3 minutes on each side. Place roast in a slow cooker.
- In a mixing bowl, wisk together the reserved marinade, water, pork gravy mix and vinegar. Pour over the roast. Add bay leaves and sliced onions.
- Cook on LOW for 5-6 hours. (Slow cookers may vary.).
- Remove the pork and onions from the cooker, reserving the gravy. Discard the bay leaves.
- Served sliced or shredded. SLICED: Slice the pork into medallions and serve with gravy and onions. SHREDDED: Shred the pork, adding some gravy to keep it moist. Pile onto crusty Cuban bread and serve with gravy for dipping.
Tips:
- Use a pork loin roast that is at least 3 pounds. This will ensure that you have enough pork to feed your guests.
- Make sure the pork roast is trimmed of excess fat. This will help the pork roast cook evenly.
- Score the pork roast with a sharp knife. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat and give it more flavor.
- Marinate the pork roast for at least 2 hours, but no longer than 24 hours. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to soak into the meat.
- Roast the pork roast in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes per pound. This will ensure that the pork roast is cooked through.
- Let the pork roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Caribbean Roast Pork Loin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork is marinated in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs, then roasted in the oven until it is tender and juicy. Serve the pork with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or vegetables.
