How To Make marinated pork loin - cuban style
-
Step 1Combine all marinade ingredients in a blender and blend until thoroughly mixed. Reserve some of the marinade for basting the pork loin during the roasting process.
-
Step 2Cut small slits in the pork loin to allow the marinade to penetrate the meat and then place it in a gallon bag.
-
Step 3Pour remaining marinade over the pork and work it around to ensure entire roast is covered with the marinade. For best results, marinate the pork overnight.
-
Step 4Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the pork from the marinade and place it in a roasting pan. Roast for 2 - 2 1/2 hours, basting frequently with reserved basting marinade.
-
Step 5Tent the roast and allow it to stand for 10 minutes before serving.
