...Sweet and tangy balsamic vinegar makes a great marinade for this roast pork loin recipe. As the pork loin roasts, the marinade is used as a basting liquid, and when the meat's cooked it's served as a delicious sauce with the tender slices.
Makes 6 Portions of Balsamic and Rosemary Roast Pork Loin
Prep Time: 3 hours
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 4 hours
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh chopped rosemary
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves chopped garlic
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 pound boneless pork loin roast
Preparation:
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together all the ingredients, except the pork loin. Place the pork into a plastic freezer bag and pour in the marinade. Press out air, seal the bag, and marinate the pork for 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the pork in a baking dish, season with additional salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste, and pour in the marinade. Add 1/2 cup of water, and place in the preheated oven. Roast for about 1 hour, basting occasionally with the marinade, until the internal temperature reaches 145-150 degrees F. Remove and let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before serving. Slice and serve with some of the marinade drizzled over the top.
Note: the marinade can be reduced in a saucepan while the pork is resting, if a thicker, more intense sauce is desired.
