It is almost effortless to make a tender, juicy pork loin roast with a simple herb rub that coats the roast in beautiful flavors. I browned and seared the roast in a  frying pan or skillet to lock in the juices and then baked in the oven until done to perfection.

The browning step can be skipped, but I think it makes a  difference in the boldness of the flavors and tenderness of the roast.

But sometimes in a rush, I have skipped it and just turned on the broiler to brown the last few minutes of roasting. I do prefer to pan-sear it before baking, however.

This roast is excellent served with steamed asparagus, cauliflower mash, or other low-carb vegetables.

Keto Herb Rubbed Pork Loin Roast-

Ingredients:

• 1 lb boneless pork loin roast (not tenderloin)
• 2 clove garlic, peeled and minced
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon fine ground sea salt
• ½  teaspoon dried thyme

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400° F and line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.
2. In a small bowl combine paprika, minced garlic, dried thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, dried rosemary,  dried oregano, black pepper, and sea salt. Stir until blended. Add 1 ½ tablespoon olive oil to spice mix and stir until mixed.
3. Using a pastry brush, cover all sides of the pork roast with the oil and spice mixture.
4. Heat ½ tablespoon avocado oil in large frying pan on the stovetop.  Brown and sear all sides of the pork roast evenly in the hot frying pan (just to brown and lock in juices of pork, but not to cook pork through).
5. Transfer the browned roast to the prepared baking sheet with fat side facing up and bake in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until the thermometer reads an internal temperature between 145-160° F.
6. Remove roast and let rest for 8  minutes before slicing. Slice and serve.
