Fennel-Rubbed Pork Roast With Balsamic-Glazed Vegetables Recipe

1. 1

   Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Combine fennel, onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub and evenly distribute mixture onto pork. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Sear pork on all sides until well-browned, about 15 minutes total.

2. 2

   Add vegetables to pan, along with 1/2 cup white wine. Season vegetables with salt and pepper and deglaze pan by scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and balsamic vinegar and transfer to the oven to roast, uncovered, turning the meat periodically, until pork registers 140 to 145u00b0F on an instant read thermometer, about 1 hour.

3. 3

   Remove from oven and transfer pork loin to a cutting board. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, deglaze pan with remaining 1/2 cup wine, using a wooden spoon to scrape up browned bits. Season pan juices to taste with salt and pepper. Slice meat and serve with vegetables and pan juices.
