This pork loin roast recipe is the perfect holiday main dish! This Orange Cranberry Pork Loin Roast is juicy, delicious, and super festive. 

The orange cranberry sauce is what makes this pork loin roast recipe so amazing!. It adds such bright and cheery flavour, which is why it's so perfect for holidays. I love this roasted pork recipe for Christmas.

Ingredients:

• 1kg to 1.5kg boneless pork loin roast
• olive oil
• salt & pepper to taste
• ¾ cup orange juice, divided
• ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
• 225g sweet orange marmalade
• 200g whole cranberry sauce

Method:

Preheat oven to 190ºC/170ºC for fan assist oven.

Place the pork in a shallow roasting pan or grill pan and pat dry with kitchen paper.

Rub all sides with olive oil.

Season with salt & pepper on all sides.

Sear each side over high heat for 2 minutes per side, 10 minutes in total.

While searing, make your sauce. In a medium bowl, stir together the ½ cup orange juice, vinegar, marmalade and cranberry sauce.

Place seared pork in a large roasting pan and pour sauce over the pork.

Cook for 60-80 minutes or until internal temperature reaching 140-145 in the most central part of the pork. Baste every 20 minutes in orange juice mixture.

While pork is resting, add remaining ¼ cup orange juice to the juices left over from cooking. If your roasting pan is stove-top safe you can just keep all the sauces in the pan or if not, add to a saucepan.

Bring sauce to a boil and then reduce to a simmer while pork rests.

Slice and serve pork, drizzled with more sauce and garnished with orange slices and fresh cranberries.

Enjoy!!!
