Roasted Pork Loin With Orange And Sage Sauce Recipes

PORK LOIN WITH ORANGE DIJON SAUCE

Steps:

• Set oven to 325 degrees F.
• Lightly grease a 13" x 9" baking dish.
• Using a small sharp knife slice small slits all over in the roast, then stuff the garlic clove halves into the slits (this is only optional I like to do this).
• Rub the olive oil all over the roast.
• In a small bowl combine first 5 spice ingredients; rub spices all over pork loin to coat evenly.
• Place the roast in prepared pan.
• Bake for 1 hour.
• Remove from oven and cover with foil; bake for 30 minutes more, or until a roast tests done.
• Meanwhile in a saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the ingredients are well combined and the marmalade has softened.
• Serve pork loin with the sauce.
• Note: the sauce recipe yields approx 2 cups, if desired, the sauce may be doubled.

ROAST LOIN OF PORK WITH SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop the garlic and half the sage and insert it in the center of the pork. Squeeze a half lemon over the pork and season the meat with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy casserole or Dutch oven just large enough to hold the loin. Brown the loin on all sides and drain off the fat.
• Arrange the onion over the bottom of the pan and sprinkle with remaining sage leaves and thyme sprigs. Put the loin on top and add the chicken stock and wine. Cover and cook for an hour. Uncover, turn the oven up to 375 degrees, and let the meat brown for 20 to 30 minutes. Test to see if the meat is done. (It is cooked when an internal temperature of 155 degrees on a meat thermometer is registered.)
• Remove the pork loin to a serving dish and keep it warm. (You can put it back in the oven, leaving the door ajar.) Skim the fat from the cooking juices and reduce them until thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve in a warmed sauce boat. Decorate the pork with sprigs of sage and thyme and serve.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ORANGE AND SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan and brown the pork on all sides. Place in a baking dish and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, depending on the thickness of the meat.
• While the pork is roasting, to the unwashed frying pan, add the sherry and stock and bring to the boil until reduced by about one quarter. Add the orange juice and rind and redcurrant preserves and simmer gently until dissolved. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper and finally the sage. The sauce should be thin and slightly syrupy.
• When the pork is done, allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into medallions.
• Serve.
