Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 3-pound boneless, pork loin rolled and tied in one piece
6 sprigs fresh sage
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
3 sprigs thyme
2 1/2 cups strong chicken stock
1/2 cup white wine
Sprigs of sage to garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop the garlic and half the sage and insert it in the center of the pork. Squeeze a half lemon over the pork and season the meat with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a heavy casserole or Dutch oven just large enough to hold the loin. Brown the loin on all sides and drain off the fat.
  • Arrange the onion over the bottom of the pan and sprinkle with remaining sage leaves and thyme sprigs. Put the loin on top and add the chicken stock and wine. Cover and cook for an hour. Uncover, turn the oven up to 375 degrees, and let the meat brown for 20 to 30 minutes. Test to see if the meat is done. (It is cooked when an internal temperature of 155 degrees on a meat thermometer is registered.)
  • Remove the pork loin to a serving dish and keep it warm. (You can put it back in the oven, leaving the door ajar.) Skim the fat from the cooking juices and reduce them until thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve in a warmed sauce boat. Decorate the pork with sprigs of sage and thyme and serve.

The pork was a little overcooked, but the flavor was still good.

The pork was a bit bland. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork was tough and dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

Amazing! I highly recommend browning your pork roast searing. It gives the meat such beautiful color and flavor.

The pork was a little dry, but the flavor was still good. Next time, I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This roast loin of pork with sage was a hit at our dinner party! The pork was juicy and flavorful, and the sage added a nice touch of herbiness. We served it with roasted potatoes and green beans, and it was a perfect meal.
