Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375˚F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and set aside. Pat dry pork loin with paper towels.
- In a small mixing bowl combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper.
- Lightly spray pork loin with cooking spray. This will make it easier for the spice mix to stick.
- Take the spice mix and rub it all over the pork loin.
- Heat olive oil over medium heat and sear the pork loin until browned on all sides; about 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer pork loin to previously prepared baking sheet, fat-layer side up; set aside.
- In a bowl, combine garlic, honey, soy sauce, mustard and oil; whisk until well combined. If too thick, add a bit more oil or soy sauce. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the sauce to use for the vegetables.
- Brush remaining honey mixture over the pork loin. Roast for 25 minutes.
- In the meantime, toss the vegetables with a tablespoon of olive oil and the reserved honey mixture. Pull pork roast out of the oven and add the vegetables all around it in one layer.
- Tent a piece of foil over the pork so the top doesn't burn, but the inside continues to cook. Put back in the oven and continue to cook for 25 to 30 more minutes, or until internal temperature of the pork loin reaches 145˚F. Use an Instant Read Thermometer to check for doneness. Stir vegetables half way through cooking.
- Remove baking sheet from oven and loosely cover meat and veggies with foil; let rest 10 minutes. Cut the pork in slices and serve with veggies.

Steps:
- In a small enameled cast-iron casserole, melt 1 tablespoon butter in 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add pork, season with salt and brown well over medium to medium-high heat, about 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate and pour off fat in casserole. Add wine to casserole and boil over high heat, scraping up browned bits. Add bay leaf, thyme, yellow onion and pork. Cover and cook over very low heat, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in center registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour. Transfer pork to a carving board and let rest at least 10 minutes. Set casserole and its contents aside.
- In a large sauté pan, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add pancetta and cook, stirring, over medium heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in spring onion. Add asparagus or snap peas, lettuce and 1/3 cup pork juices from casserole; season with salt. Cover and cook over medium-high heat until asparagus is crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Uncover and cook until juices thicken. Remove pan from heat and stir in chopped herbs. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
- Bring juices in casserole to a simmer and season with salt and pepper. Thickly slice pork, spoon pan juices over meat and serve with vegetables.

HERB-ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH HARICOTS VERTS, SPRING ONIONS, AND MUSTARD BREADCRUMBS
Steps:
- Whisk together the mustard, thyme leaves, parsley, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a shallow baking dish. Stir in the garlic, and slather the pork with this mustard mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- Take the pork out of the refrigerator 1 hour before cooking, to bring it to room temperature. After 30 minutes, season the pork generously with salt and pepper. Reserve the marinade.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Heat a large sauté pan over high heat for 3 minutes. Swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and wait a minute or two, until the pan is very hot, almost smoking. Place the pork loin in the pan, and sear it on all sides until well browned and caramelized. Don't turn or move the pork too quickly or all the mustard will be left in the pan and not on the pork. Be patient; this searing process takes 15 to 20 minutes.
- Transfer the pork loin to a roasting rack, and slather the reserved marinade over the meat. Reserve the pan. Arrange the rosemary, sage, and thyme sprigs on the roast and top with 3 tablespoons butter.
- Roast the pork until a thermometer inserted into the center reads 120°F, about 1 1/4 hours. Let the pork rest at least 10 minutes before slicing.
- While the pork is roasting, return the pork-searing pan to the stove over medium-high heat. Wait 1 to 2 minutes and then deglaze it with the chicken stock or water. Bring to a boil, whisking and scraping the bottom of the pan to release the crispy bits. Swirl in 3 tablespoons butter and set aside.
- Arrange the haricots verts and spring onions on a large warm platter. Slice the pork thinly, about 1/4-inch thick, and fan the meat over the beans. Add the buttery pork juices and herbs to the sauce, bring it to a boil, and then spoon it over the pork. Shower the mustard breadcrumbs over the top.
- Haricots Verts and Spring Onions
- Blanch the haricots verts in a large pot of salted boiling water 2 to 3 minutes, until tender but still al dente.
- Cut the spring onions 1 inch above the bulb, leaving some green top still attached. Trim the roots, but leave the root end intact (this will keep the onions in wedges, rather than slices). Cut the onions lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick wedges.
- Heat two pans over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. (In order to get nice color on the onions and preserve their beautiful shape, it's best to cook them in two large pans so they are not crowded.) Swirl 2 tablespoons olive oil into each pan, and gently place the onions in the pans, cut side down. Season with the thyme, salt, and pepper, and cook the onion wedges 2 to 3 minutes, until they start to brown slightly. Turn the onions, using tongs, and add the haricots verts. Season each pan with 1/4 teaspoon salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring to combine. Add the butter and sage leaves and cook a few more minutes, tossing to glaze the vegetables in the butter and let the sage perfume them. Taste for seasoning.
- Mustard Breadcrumbs
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Place the breadcrumbs in a medium bowl. Heat a small sauté pan over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the butter, and when it foams, whisk in the mustard, thyme, and parsley. Remove from the heat, let cool a few minutes, and then pour the mustard butter over the breadcrumbs, tossing to coat them well. Transfer the breadcrumbs to a baking sheet, and toast them 10 to 12 minutes, stirring often, until they're golden brown and crispy.
- Note
- Marinate the pork the day before serving. You can blanch the haricots verts and cut the spring onions ahead of time, but cook them while the pork is resting. The mustard breadcrumbs can be made a few hours ahead of time.
ROAST PORK LOIN WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 13 x 9 x 2-inch roasting pan with foil. Mix first 4 ingredients in bowl. Rub garlic mixture all over pork. Place pork, fat side down, in prepared roasting pan. Roast pork 30 minutes. Turn roast fat side up. Roast until thermometer inserted into center of pork registers 155°F., about 25 minutes longer. Remove from oven; let stand 10 minutes.
- Pour any juices from roasting pan into small saucepan; set over low heat to keep warm. Cut pork crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Arrange pork slices on platter. Pour pan juices over. Garnish with rosemary sprigs, if desired.
