Country-Style Pork Loin Recipe

By dorchuk

Ingredients

• 1 boneless pork loin roast (3 pounds)
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon ground mustard
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/4 cup cold water
• Hot mashed potatoes, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Cut roast in half. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, onion powder and mustard. Add pork, one portion at a time, and shake to coat. In a large skillet, brown pork in oil on all sides.

Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Pour broth over pork. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until tender. Remove pork and keep warm. Let pork stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Strain cooking juices, reserving 2-1/2 cups juices; skim fat from reserved juices. Transfer to a small saucepan. Bring liquid to a boil. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve pork and gravy with mashed potatoes if desired.
Yield: 8 servings.
