QUICK SAVORY CRANBERRY GLAZED PORK LOIN ROAST



Quick Savory Cranberry Glazed Pork Loin Roast image

This simple, 1-hour roast is our favorite Christmas dish and voted most likely to be served if the President were to drop in for dinner- LOL! I love serving this entree because it causes me NO stress and everyone raves over it. While the pork is roasting, make another batch of the cranberry glaze to serve in a gravy boat alongside the sliced pork roast. For food safety, the new batch should not be prepared in same pan as the first if you have been basting directly out of the saucepan. If you basted out of another dish, you can use the same pan.

Provided by Joanna Cismaru

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 pound pork loin
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon thyme (dried)
¼ teaspoon nutmeg (ground)
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
½ teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 cups cranberry sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 F degrees and arrange the rack in the middle of the oven.
  • Drizzle the olive oil all over the pork loin. Season with thyme, nutmeg, allspice, salt and pepper on all sides evenly.
  • Heat a large 12 inch cast iron pan with a little bit of olive oil, then brown the pork on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Sear until it's a deep golden brown and easily releases from the pan. Remove from heat.
  • Drizzle honey on all sides of the pork loin then grate some orange zest over it.
  • Cover with aluminum foil, transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and finish roasting for another 30 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork reads anywhere from 145 to 160 F degrees.
  • Meanwhile prepare the cranberry sauce. I used my own cranberry sauce recipe, however, store bought cranberry sauce will work as well.
  • Transfer the pork roast to a cutting board and let it rest for at least 15 to 20 minutes before slicing into it.
  • Slice then top with cranberry sauce before serving it.
