Roast Pork Loin with Mushrooms and Tomatoes Recipe

Roast Pork Loin with Mushrooms and Tomatoes Recipe

  • 1 pound plum tomatoes, cut into thick wedges
  • 1 pound small button mushrooms, stems trimmed
  • 5 cloves garlic, halved
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 1 (2 1/4 pound) boneless pork loin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, combine tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, and oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, and move mixture to sides of pan (leaving center free).
  2. Sprinkle pork with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, cumin, coriander, and oregano, rubbing mixture in. Place pork in center of pan.
  3. Roast until meat registers 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer and mushrooms are tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven.
  4. Cut off a third (10 ounces) of the pork loin, and set aside for making pressed pork sandwiches. Slice remaining pork, and serve with tomatoes, mushrooms, and any pan juices.
