Yield: 8 Servings
Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
⅓ cup | Coriander seeds; crushed |
1¼ cup | Fine dry bread crumbs |
¾ cup | Extra-virgin olive oil |
1 teaspoon | Freshly cracked black pepper |
¾ teaspoon | Salt or to taste |
1 \N | (3-lb) boneless pork loin roast |
1 \N | Red bell pepper; cut in small squares |
½ cup | Caribe (crushed N. New Mexico hot red chile) |
1 cup | Honey |
½ cup | Fresh lime juice |
¼ cup | Minced fresh cilantro |
Combine coriander seeds, crumbs, oil, black pepper and salt. Mix well. Then preheat oven to 400. Lay pork roast out flat, inside (cut side) up. Place about ⅓ of crumb mixture on pork, evenly distributing it across surface, then roll up meat and tie securely in 2 or 3 places with kitchen cord.
Place roast, seam side down, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan; coat with remaining crumb mixture. Roast 15 minutes, then reduce oven to 325 and roast 1 hour longer or until meat thermometer inserted in center of meat registers 170. Remove from oven, let stand 20 minutes to let juices settle.
Meanwhile, prepare sauce: in small saucepan, combine bell pepper, caribe, honey & lime juice. Cook, stirring often, 15 minutes until sauce is thickened and somewhat glazed. Remove from heat and mix in cilantro. Serve sauce in separate bowl. About 8 servings.
