My nephew from Toronto shared this recipe with me a while back. It is very flavorful, and the accompanying roasted potatoes make it a complete meal.

Ingredients

6 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup olive oil
1 boneless pork loin roast (3 pounds)
14 to 16 unpeeled small red potatoes (about 2 pounds), halved

Directions

Combine garlic and salt in a small bowl until a paste forms. Add parsley, paprika and oregano; mix well. Whisk in oil. Rub over roast. Cover and chill overnight.
Place roast and any extra oil mixture in a roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 450° for 15 minutes. Add potatoes to pan. Reduce heat to 350°; bake for 1 to 1-1/4 hours or until a thermometer reads 160°-170°. Spoon drippings over potatoes. Let roast stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

Very easy to make, the seasonings give a delicious taste to the potatoes and pork roast. Would also be great and more of a one pot meal if yoo added some baby carrots and onions.

5 stars is not enough stars this recipe should have way more. This recipe has an awesome flavor. my family raved about it and my boyfriend took it to work and it reheated really well. I had a larger roast and had more potatoes so I made extra maranade and it was really tasty.
