Brown Sugar Garlic Pork with Carrots & Potatoes
Brown Sugar Garlic Pork combines a pork loin rubbed with a mixture of brown sugar, minced garlic, and canola oil, roasted alongside seasoned carrots and potatoes. The vegetables are tossed with oil, salt, and pepper and arranged on a sheet pan around the pork. Roasting at 375°F allows the pork to become tender and the vegetables to cook through, making a straightforward one-pan meal.
