Rosemary and Garlic Pork Loin

Another one of Nicks recipes.  Absolutely delicious (and I don't even like rosemary usually!).


Ingredients:
4 Large garlic cloves, chopped into tiny pieces
4 tsps chopped fresh rosemary or 2 tsps dried rosemary (we used fresh)
1 1/2 tsp coarse salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 Pork loin (2 1/2 pounds), boneless
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
*Trim most of the fat off of your pork loin.


*Line a 13x9 glass baking dish with tin foil, then spray it down with baking spray.


*Pre-heat oven to 400*F

*In a small bowl, mix the chopped garlic, chopped rosemary, salt and pepper.  Mix well.

*Put fat side down in the baking dish (if you still have some fatty portion).

*Rub the pork loin down with oil, the rub the spice mixture over it.

*Bake for 30 minutes.

*After 30 minutes, flip the roast over so the part that was on the bottom is now on the top.


*Bake an additional 25-30 minutes  (until inside temperature is 155*F).

*Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
