The Lime Mojo (a sauce of olive oil, chilies, garlic and spices) provides a spicy, tangy counterpoint to the pork. Serve the Spiced Butternut Squash and the Corn and Cheese Arepas (see recipes) as side dishes, and pour a Zinfandel or dark beer. Begin preparing the pork a day ahead. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons latin spice mix |
1 3 1/2-pound center-cut boneless pork loin |
lime mojo |
Directions:
1. Rub 3 tablespoons Latin Spice Mix all over pork. Place pork in large resealable plastic bag. Add 2 cups Lime Mojo. Close bag and refrigerate pork overnight. Cover remaining Lime Mojo and refrigerate.
2. Preheat oven to 450°F. Discard marinade from pork. Place pork on rack in large roasting pan. Roast 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F and roast until thermometer inserted into center of pork registers 150°F, about 45 minutes. Transfer pork to cutting board. Tent with foil; let stand 15 minutes. Cut pork into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Spoon reserved Lime Mojo over pork.
