Helpful Tips
Traditional pork loins cooked whole, take 45 minutes or longer to cook in the oven. To cook yours faster, slice the pork loin into chops or medallions before roasting. I recommend slicing the pork loin into one inch or one-and-a-half-inch thickness so that it cooks in 25-30 minutes.
When it comes out of the oven, let the pork sit in the dish with the vegetables 5-10 minutes. It will get extra juicy, moist, and tender!
You can also reduce your prep time by chopping the vegetables and marinating them in the refrigerator ahead of time. They will stay good 2-3 days before cooking. Breaking up the work is one of my favorite ways to reduce time in the kitchen, so that you can spend more time with friends and family!
