Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a small bowl stir together all ingredients for the garlic butter. Set aside.
- Pat pork dry with paper towels.
- Use a fork to pierce pork all over a dozen or so times.
- Season pork generously all over with salt and pepper.
- Place pork on a greased, rimmed sheet pan or in a casserole dish.
- Rub half of the garlic butter mixture over the top of the pork. Reserve remaining garlic butter for later.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes until outside is browned and inside is no longer pink. (Internal temperature should read 145 degrees).
- Let pork rest for 5 minutes. Rub remaining garlic butter over the pork. Rest another 5 minutes. Slice, serve, enjoy!
Notes
- Herbs: I love Herbs de Provence, but you can use any favorite Italian seasoning blend OR substitute 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley + 2 teaspoons fresh chopped other herb (like thyme or oregano)
- Butter: If using unsalted butter, add 1/4 teaspoon salt to the butter mixture.
- Spice it up: Add 1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes to the butter for a tasty hint of heat!
