Ingredients

  • 1 (6 oz.) box stuffing mix
  • 1 boneless, center-cut pork loin roast (about 3 lb.), excess fat trimmed
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 3 lb. sweet potatoes (about 9) with skins, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks

Method

  • Have oven to 450°. Prepare the stuffing mix according to package instructions in a bowl. Place roast, fat side up, on a clean surface. With a sharp knife, cut along length of pork loin without cutting all the way through. Open up pork like a book. Spoon stuffing down center of pork; close pork over stuffing. Tie up loin with kitchen twine, spacing twine about every 1 1/2-inches. Rub pork with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Stir together the flour, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the seasoned flour mixture evenly over the pork loin. Toss together sweet potato chunks and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a roasting pan. Spread out evenly over bottom of pan. Place the tied pork loin, fat side up, on top of potatoes in the roasting pan. Roast in a 450° oven for about 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°. Continue to roast 55 to 60 minutes or until instant-read thermometer inserted into pork but not in stuffing, registers 150° to 155° and potatoes are fork-tender. Let the pork rest for about 15 minutes. Temperature of pork should increase to 160°. Keep the sweet potatoes warm. Remove the twine from the pork loin before slicing. Serve with potatoes. Makes about 12 servings.
