Bacon-Glazed Pork Loin
Ingredients
  • 1 (3 pound) boneless pork loin
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 1 sweet onion, minced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons dry red wine
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 tablespoons golden raisins
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit or 190 degrees Celsius.
2
To prepare for cooking, line a shallow roasting dish with aluminum foil to make cleanup easier.
3
Next, season the pork loin with salt and pepper for added flavor.
4
Wrap slices of bacon around the pork loin, securing them in place with toothpicks to create a visually appealing dish.
5
In order to achieve the perfect sear, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the pork loin until it reaches a golden brown color on all sides, approximately 10 minutes.
6
Transfer the cooked pork loin to the prepared roasting pan for further cooking.
7
Mix together onion, honey, balsamic vinegar, red wine, and rosemary in a bowl until the ingredients are well combined.
8
Spread this mixture evenly over the pork loin to add moisture and flavor.
9
Place the prepared pork loin in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then sprinkle with raisins to add a sweet and savory element.
10
Continue cooking the pork loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit or 63 degrees Celsius, approximately 15 minutes more.
11
Finally, remove the pork loin from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before carefully removing the toothpicks and slicing into thin pieces.
