Pork loin at its best! This recipe is my personal adaptation from a true Italian chef. It can easily be made at home and may just become one of your favorites, too! Ingredients:
3 pounds boneless pork loin |
1 cup italian salad dressing |
1 (10 ounce) can large, pitted black olives, drained and chopped |
1 (8 ounce) jar spanish olives, drained and chopped |
4 cloves garlic |
1/4 white onion, chopped |
10 pepperoncini peppers, drained and chopped |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar |
cracked black pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Place pork in a shallow dish and coat with Italian dressing. Cover and refrigerate for two hours.
2. For the relish, stir the black olives, green olives, garlic, onion, and peppers together in a bowl; stir in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
3. When pork has finished marinating, preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
4. Slice the pork loin down the center lengthwise, cutting about 3/4 of the way through to the other side. Stuff full with the olive relish. Cover and bake in the preheated oven for about 2 hours, or until internal temperature has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
