Number Of Ingredients 11

3- to 3 1/2-lb boneless pork loin roast
1/2 cup orange marmalade
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 teaspoons fennel seed, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon dried sage leaves, crushed
2 medium dark-orange sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 lb Brussels sprouts, cut in half if large
2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. On rack in shallow roasting pan, place pork. In small bowl, mix marmalade, orange juice, fennel, thyme and sage. Brush half of the marmalade mixture over pork.
  • In large bowl, toss sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts with oil, salt and pepper. Arrange vegetables around pork. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of pork.
  • Roast uncovered 1 hour. Brush pork with remaining marmalade mixture; gently stir vegetables to coat with pan juices. Roast about 15 minutes longer or until thermometer reads 155°F and vegetables are tender. Cover pork with foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes until thermometer reads 160°F.
