• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon caraway seeds

Equipment

• 1 Roasting Pan large enough for the pork loin and pan juices

Method

 

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and set a rack in a roasting pan or oven-safe skillet.
2. 2. Pat the pork loin dry, then rub it all over with the PA Dutch Pork And Kraut Infused Olive Oil Blend, olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
3. 3. Scatter the sliced onion and minced garlic in the bottom of the pan, then set the pork loin on top.
4. 4. Spoon the drained sauerkraut around the pork and pour the chicken broth into the pan.
5. 5. Roast for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the thickest part of the pork reaches 145°F on an instant-read thermometer.
6. 6. During the last 10 minutes, whisk the Dijon mustard into the pan juices and dot the pork with the butter.
7. 7. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
8. 8. Stir the pan juices, onions, and sauerkraut together, then spoon the mixture over the sliced pork.
9. 9. Finish with chopped parsley and caraway seeds, then serve warm.

Notes

Use a pork loin roast, not tenderloin, for the best roast texture and slice shape. Drain the sauerkraut well so the pan flavors stay balanced instead of watery. If the roast is getting too dark before it reaches temperature, cover it loosely with foil for the remaining cook time. Resting the pork before slicing helps the juices settle back into the meat. For a stronger kraut note, add an extra 1/4 cup sauerkraut to the pan.

Recipe Tips

Let the pork loin sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before roasting so it cooks more evenly. If the surface starts browning quickly, tent it loosely with foil during the last stretch of roasting.

For the best finish, whisk the pan juices with a little butter before spooning them over the sliced pork.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this roast with buttered noodles, roasted carrots, mashed potatoes, or warm dinner rolls to catch every bit of the sauce. A crisp green salad or simple cabbage slaw adds a fresh contrast on the side.

This also makes a strong centerpiece for a family-style dinner spread or a relaxed holiday meal.

Storage

Store leftover pork in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a covered skillet with a spoonful of pan juices or a splash of broth so the slices stay moist.

Leftovers also work well tucked into sandwiches or chopped into hash.

Variations

For a heartier pan sauce, add sliced apples to the roasting pan during the last 25 minutes of cooking. You can also stir a little Dijon into the pan juices for a sharper finish.

If you want a more rustic presentation, roast the pork over a bed of onions and cabbage wedges.
