Description

Pork loin seared, then roasted at 400F with Brussels sprouts, carrots, and red onions under a glaze of boiled cider and Dijon mustard. About 50 minutes start to finish.


Ingredients

Units
  • 1-2.5 lbs (454-1134 g) boneless pork loin
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp pepper
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 red onions
  • 1 bunch carrots
  • 1 lbs (454 g) brussels sprouts
  • 0.25 cups (59 ml) boiled cider
  • 1 Tbsp dijon mustard
  • chopped fresh sage

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
  2. Season pork with 1 tsp salt and pepper.
  3. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Sear pork on all sides (2-3 minutes per side) and set aside.
  5. Toss the vegetables in the remaining oil with 1 tsp salt.
  6. Add the seared pork to a large roasting pan and place the vegetables around the pork.
  7. Whisk together the boiled cider and Dijon mustard, and drizzle over the pork.
  8. Roast until the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) in the center (about 35 minutes).
  9. Remove from the oven, cover pork with foil, and let it rest 15 minutes before slicing.
  10. Slice pork into 16 slices and place on a platter with the roasted vegetables for serving.

Notes

  • For a deeper flavor, marinate the pork loin in the cider and Dijon mixture for at least 30 minutes before roasting.
  • Substitute other root vegetables like parsnips or sweet potatoes for the carrots.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated gently in a skillet or oven.
