Original Recipe Yield 3 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (2 pound) boneless pork loin
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 onions, halved
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

  1. Pat the pork roast dry with a paper towel and perforate the meat at 1 inch intervals with a knife or fork. Insert leaves of rosemary in the perforations.
  2. Place the onion halves into a glass 9 or 10 inch pie plate. Set the meat on top of the onions so they act as a roasting rack. Pour the water over the meat and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and cumin.
  3. Cook in the microwave at full power for 16 minutes (or about 8 minutes per pound). Turn the roast over and cook for an additional 6 minutes or until the internal temperature of the roast has reached 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let the roast rest for about 15 minutes before carving and serving.
