Ingredients

3/4 cup packed fresh flat-leafed Parsley Leaves

1/4 cup packed roughly chopped fresh Sage, plus whole Sage Leaves for roasting

3 whole Garlic Cloves, plus 2 Cloves, minced

Salt (Kosher) and freshly ground Pepper, to taste

5 Tbs. Olive Oil

1 boneless Pork Loin Roast, about 3 1/2 lb., halved horizontally

3 ripe red Anjou Pears, halved lengthwise

4 Leeks, white portions only, trimmed, halved lengthwise and rinsed

2 tsp. all-purpose Flour

1/4 cup dry White Wine

1/2 cup Chicken Broth

2 Tbs. whole-grain Mustard

1/4 cup heavy Cream

Directions

Position a rack in the lower third of oven and preheat to 400 degrees.

In a mini food processor, process parsley, chopped sage, whole garlic, salt, pepper and 3 Tbs. of the olive oil until a fine paste forms.

Spread mixture on cut side of one half of the pork loin, then place the other half on top.

Tie roast together with kitchen twine and tuck whole sage leaves underneath twine.

Season roast with salt and pepper.

In a 5 1/2-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat, warm remaining 2 Tbs. Oliove Oil.

Add pears, cut side down, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.

Transfer to a plate.

Add pork to the pot, and brown on all sides, about 8 minutes total.

Transfer to a plate.

Place leeks, cut side down, in the pot in a single layer.

Set the pork on top and place the pears along the sides of the pot.

Roast in oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted int o the center of the pork registers 140 degrees, 45 to 55 minutes.

Transfer pork to a carving board, cover loosely with aluminun foil and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Transfer the leeks and pears to a platter.

Pour the pan drippings into a bowl and discard all but 2 tsp. of the fat.

Warm the reserved fat in the pot over medium-high heat.

Add the minced garlic and flour and cook, stirring frequently, for 30 seconds.

Add the wine and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute.

Add the broth and pan drippings and cook until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.

Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the mustard and cream.

Season with salt and pepper.

Cut the pork into slices and arrange on the platter. Pass the sauce alongside.
