CITRUS ROASTED PORK LOIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Pierce meat all over with the tip of a sharp knife. Insert the garlic into the cuts in the meat. Place in a bowl or large freezer-weight resealable plastic bag.
• Mix dressing, cumin, lime zest and juice until well blended; pour over meat. Cover the bowl or seal the bag and refrigerate overnight. Remove meat from the marinade; discard marinade. Place meat in a foil-lined roasting pan.
• Bake at 350°F for 1-1/2 hours. Pour orange juice over meat. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat. Bake an additional 30 min. or until internal temperature reaches 160°F. Let stand 10 min. before slicing to serve. Serve with juices from the pan.

PORK WITH TANGY CITRUS SAUCE

Steps:

• Finely grate zest from one orange into a small bowl, then squeeze 1 cup juice from oranges. Stir in lime juice. Set aside.
• Season pork with salt and pepper, then press in flour to coat, shaking off excess. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high until shimmering. Add pork and cook until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Reduce heat to medium and add remaining tablespoon oil. Add onion, season with salt, and cook, scraping up browned bits, until crisp-tender, 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute, stirring.
• Add juices and zest and bring to a boil and cook until reduced by 1/4 about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons sugar, if desired. Return pork to pan and simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
