Garlic and Sage Roasted Pork
This garlic and sage roasted pork is packed with deep, savory flavor and a beautifully golden crust. A tender cut of pork is seasoned with fresh sage, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper, then roasted to juicy perfection. As it cooks, the fragrant blend of herbs and aromatics infuses the meat with warmth and richness. Serve it sliced alongside roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a hearty and comforting meal.
