Roast Pork With Apples & Onions

I tried a new recipe tonight and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. The recipe is incredibly simple to make with very few ingredients. I have never made pork with apples even though they are paired many times. This recipe came from Better Homes and Gardens magazine. I searched their site but was unable to come up with a link to the recipe so here is the recipe.

1 Boneless whole pork loin roast

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1 Tbsp. olive oil

3 large Golden Delicious apples, cut into wedges

2 large onions, cut into wedges

5 garlic cloves, peeled

1 Tbsp. minced fresh rosemary or 1 tsp. dried rosemary, crushed

1/4 tsp. pepper

Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, brown roast in oil on all sides. Place in a shallow roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Arrange apples, onions, and garlic around roast; sprinkle with rosemary.

Bake uncovered, at 350 for 1 to 1 1/4 hours or until meat thermometer reads 160, turning the apples, onions and garlic once. Let roast stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

~ My tweeks: I used one apple and one onion. Instead of cooking spray I drizzled a small amount of olive oil on the bottom of the pan. I only had Granny Smith apples and came to the conclusion a sweeter one like the recipe calls for would be a better fit.

This recipe gets a rating of a 2.

New ingredient: Granny Smith Apples
