Ingredients

  • 1 (2 1/2 pound) boneless pork sirloin roast
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
  • 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1
Bring roast to room temperature by removing from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.

Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3
Combine olive oil, garlic, thyme, sage, lemon zest, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Spread rub over roast until completely coated. Place on a rack in a roasting pan.

Step 4
Roast in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, 45 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 150 degrees F (66 degrees C).

Step 5
Remove from the oven and tent loosely with foil. Allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.

Recipe Tip

If using dried herbs, use 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, dried thyme, and dried rosemary, and use 3/4 teaspoon of dried sage.
