This succulent pork leg roast just melts in your mouth — it’s that tender.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dried sage
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 (5 pound) pork leg with skin
- 1 large onion
- 6 cloves garlic, halved
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 430 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Step 2
Combine olive oil, sage, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a small bowl.
Step 3
Rinse pork leg and pat dry with a paper towel. Rub seasoned olive oil onto pork leg.
Step 4
Slice onion and separate layers into rings. Place onion rings and garlic halves in the bottom of a roaster. Place pork on top of onions and garlic.
Step 5
Roast in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 355 degrees F (180 degrees C) and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 1 hour 20 minutes more.
Step 6
Remove from the oven and slice for serving.
