Honey Mustard Marinated Pork Loin

This is one of the best pork marinades I have had in ages, it is quick to throw together and the end result is wonderful. I drizzled the left over marinade that was in the pan over the pork at the end and it was so yummy. I served mine with parsnip mash and fresh vegetables done in garlic and butter, it was a great meal. If you would like to view the original recipe please click here. I did adjust some of the amounts to suit our taste but did not change the ingredients, I have listed the recipe exactly as it was posted with out listing my amounts as I was not measuring. This recipe can be played around with, to suit any ones taste, it can either be more sweet or spicy so take your pick. It can also be doubled if you want to make for more people.

Ingredients

1lb Pork loin
1 Cup honey mustard dressing
1 Garlic clove, minced
1/4 Cup onion, minced
1/8 Teaspoon red pepper flakes (or to taste)
1/4 Teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 Teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)

Method

1. Place the pork loin in a gallon-size zip lock bag.

2. Pour honey mustard dressing into the bag and add the remaining ingredients.

3. Seal the bag, releasing as much air as possible from the bag before tightly sealing.

4. With your hands, thoroughly combine the ingredients by squishing and tossing the pork loin within the bag.

5. Marinate in the refrigerator for two hours (or up to 12 hours), squishing and turning the bag occasionally.

6. Place the pork loin in a roasting pan and pour the marinade ingredients over the meat.

7. Roast in a 350 F oven for one hour or until juices run clear or meat thermometer reaches 170°F.

8. While roasting, occasionally baste the meat with the marinade liquid.

I served mine sliced over parsnip mash with vegetables.
