Servings: 6

Ingredients

Lemon juice
1/4 cup
Olive oil
1/4 cup
Black pepper
1 teaspoon
Salt
1 teaspoon
Oregano
1 teaspoon, dried
Cumin
1 teaspoon
Paprika
1 teaspoon, smoked or sweet
Garlic
4 cloves, minced
Pork loin
2 pounds

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, black pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice to create a flavorful marinade.
  2. Place the pork loin in a large ziplock bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the meat to ensure it is evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
  3. Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the pork loin from the marinade and allow any excess marinade to drip off, discarding the leftover marinade.
  5. Grill the pork loin for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for optimal juiciness.
  6. Once cooked, remove the pork loin from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing to retain its juices.
  7. Slice the pork loin into thin, tender slices and serve hot.
