Ingredients

• 3 lbs Pork loin roast
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Ground black pepper
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Dried thyme
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 cups Chicken broth
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Honey
• 2 tbsp Cornstarch
• 2 tbsp Water
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, and paprika.

Step 2

Rub the pork loin roast with olive oil, then generously coat it with the prepared spice mixture.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork loin on all sides for 3-4 minutes per side, until it is browned. This step locks in the flavor.

Step 4

Place the diced onion and minced garlic in the bottom of your crock pot, creating a base layer.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, and honey. Pour this mixture over the onions and garlic in the crock pot.

Step 6

Place the seared pork loin roast on top of the onion and broth mixture in the crock pot.

Step 7

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the pork from the crock pot and set aside to rest for 10 minutes. Strain the cooking liquid into a small saucepan, discarding the solids.

Step 9

In a separate small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Bring the cooking liquid in the saucepan to a simmer over medium heat, then whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the gravy thickens.

Step 10

Slice the pork loin roast and serve with the thickened gravy drizzled over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
