Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Line a roasting pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil and position a roasting rack inside of it.

Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels, and rub with olive oil. Season the pork loin liberally on all sides with salt and black pepper. Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, and dried parsley evenly over the surface of the meat.

Position the pork loin on the center of the roasting rack.

Roast the pork loin on middle rack of oven until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 138-142°F, 75-90 minutes.

Check to see that pork loin is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the pork loin to rest on the rack for 10-15 minutes. While it rests, it should reach an internal temperature of 145°F. Transfer the pork loin to a cutting board. Carve and serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Seasoning Penetration 🧂
Mix the dry spices thoroughly and let the pork loin sit with the seasoning for at least 30 minutes before roasting to allow deeper flavor absorption.
Oil Coating Technique 🫒
Massage the olive oil into the pork loin before adding spices to help the seasonings adhere and create a more even, flavorful crust.
Even Cooking Trick 🥩
For uniform cooking, bring the pork loin to room temperature for 20-30 minutes before roasting and consider tying it with kitchen twine to maintain a consistent shape.
Moisture Preservation 💦
Place a shallow pan of water on the bottom rack of the oven to create humidity and prevent the pork from drying out during roasting.
Crispy Exterior Hack 🔥
For a golden, crispy exterior, finish the pork loin under the broiler for 2-3 minutes after reaching the desired internal temperature.
