Italian Roast Pork With Rosemary Recipes

ROSEMARY AND GARLIC PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil. Add tenderloin to the baking pan. In a small bowl, combine the rosemary, parsley and one tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside.
• Generously season tenderloin with salt, pepper and paprika. Drizzle on the olive oil and add the peeled garlic cloves. to the pan. Cover the pan and place the pork in the fridge while the oven is preheating.
• While the oven is heating, prepare the glaze. Mix all the glaze ingredients in a small pan and let it come to a lively simmer for 20 minutes, until reduced and slightly thick.
• The sauce will slightly cover the back of a spoon and look syrupy. At the end of the cooking, you should see large, excited bubbles (this is the sugar caramelizing), so if you don't see those, keep cooking a little bit more. When sauce is ready, set aside.
• Remove the pork from the fridge and uncover it. Place the pan in the heated oven. When pork is halfway done, drizzle some of the glaze on top of the pork and baste with the juices from the bottom of the pan. If it seems too dry, add 1/4 cup more of water (more if needed).
• When there are 10 minutes left of the baking time, spoon on the rest of the glaze. Bake until pork is 150 degrees internally at the widest part of the tenderloin (about 25 minutes.)
• When pork has come to temperature, remove and let rest for at least five minutes to lock in juices. Spoon over the rest of the glaze and toss on top the fresh rosemary and parsley oil. Slice against the grain and serve immediately.

TUSCAN ROAST PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225°F (110°C) and position a rack in the center of the oven.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of a small food processor, combine the garlic, rosemary, sage, anchovy (if using), and 3 tablespoons oil and process until a coarse paste forms. (Alternatively, you can use a mortar and pestle.)
• If desired, use kitchen string to tie the pork tightly crosswise about every 2 inches (5 cm). You can slip the bay leaves under the twine if you like. If you do not tie your pork, but wish to use bay leaves, simply carve a couple slits in the pork and tuck the bay leaves into the slits.
• Season the pork on all sides with the salt, rubbing the meat to coat it.
• In a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil until shimmering. Add the pork and sear, starting with the fatty side and using tongs to turn it, until dark golden brown on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes total. Turn off the heat and let the pork in the skillet.
• Using an offset spatula or pastry brush, coat the pork with the herb mixture. If you're the sort who likes the punch of raw garlic, reserve 1 tablespoon of the herb mixture to coat the pork after it comes out of the oven.
• Transfer the skillet to the center rack in the oven and roast until the meat is tender and the internal temperature is around 180°F (82°C), 2 to 3 hours. (Rest assured, if you just got alarmed at those numbers, that although this is a much higher internal temperature than we typically cook pork, it works.)
• Remove the skillet from the oven. If desired, brush the top and sides of the pork with the reserved 1 tablespoon herb mixture. Let the pork cool for at least 5 minutes.
• Transfer the pork to a cutting board, reserving the cooking juices in the skillet. Remove and discard the string and bay leaves, if using.
• Slice the pork very thinly (about 1/8 inch | 4 mm thickness) and arrange the slices on a serving platter. Drizzle with the juices and herbs from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.
