Juicy pork loin in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to bake a juicy loin? First, prepare all the ingredients. Pork loin or the dorsal part of the carcass is the main one. Therefore, its quality should be given more attention. It is better that it be as fresh as possible, a delicate pink color. If necessary, defrost the meat in advance in any way that is familiar to you.

2. Step 2:

   

   Rinse pork thoroughly under running water and dry with a paper towel. If there is a layer of fat on it, as on mine, make incisions on it - this is necessary so that the meat is better soaked with spices.

3. Step 3:

   

   From spices I took paprika, black and red ground pepper. You can use spices like mine, or take your favorites. Pour the spices into a separate bowl.

4. Step 4:

   

   Add salt to them and mix.

5. Step 5:

   

   Rub the loin well with a dry spice mixture on all sides. Sprinkle thicker, especially on the fat layer.

6. Step 6:

   

   Transfer the meat to a sheet of foil folded in half with the shiny side up.

8. Step 7:

   

   Cover the meat with garlic plates evenly on all sides. It is not necessary to make incisions - chopped garlic adheres well to the meat surface.

9. Step 8:

   

   Wrap the loin in foil so that there are no cracks left, otherwise the meat risks getting dry. Leave the meat to marinate in the cold for at least 2-3 hours. If time is running out, leave it warm for an hour, so it will marinate faster. You can also marinate the meat in the evening and bake it in the morning.

10. Step 9:

    

    Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Bake the meat for about one hour. Determine the exact time by your oven - it may take you more or less time. Do not leave the stove for a long time, check the meat periodically. To avoid mistakes, use the tips below, under the recipe.

11. Step 10:

    

    5-10 minutes before the end of baking, you can unfold the foil so that the loin is covered with a golden crust. I didn't do it. Check the readiness of the loin with a wooden toothpick - the juice should be transparent. It is already very tasty when hot, but it will become even tastier when it cools down completely!

12. Step 11:

    

    Thinly slice the pork loin and enjoy. Bon appetit!
