Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
1 (3-pound) pork loin roast
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup crumbled feta cheese (or substitute with goat cheese for a tangier flavor)
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
2 pounds small golden potatoes, halved
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This temperature ensures a crispy exterior while keeping the meat juicy.
In a small bowl, combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Rub this mixture all over the pork loin to infuse it with flavor.
Slice a deep pocket into the side of the pork loin, being careful not to cut all the way through.
In a medium bowl, mix together the chopped spinach, feta cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes. Carefully stuff this mixture into the pocket you created in the pork loin.
Secure the stuffed pork loin with kitchen twine, tying it at 2-inch intervals to keep the stuffing in place during roasting.
Place the pork loin in a roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil. This will help to achieve that crispy, golden crust.
Arrange the halved golden potatoes around the pork loin. Sprinkle with rosemary, thyme, and a pinch of salt. Drizzle with melted butter for extra flavor.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C). The potatoes should be golden and tender.
Remove from the oven and let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This rest period allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist roast.
Slice the pork loin and serve with the golden potatoes on the side. Enjoy the medley of flavors that will surely remind you of a comforting home-cooked meal.
