Prepare Your Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Preheat your oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C).<\/li>\n<li>Prepare the butternut squash by peeling, seeding, and cutting it into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>2. Season the Pork:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Mix these seasonings well.<\/li>\n<li>Rub the pork loin generously with the seasoning mix, ensuring the flavors coat the entire surface.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>3. Sear the Pork:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork loin, browning it on all sides for about 4-5 minutes per side. This helps lock in the juices and enhances the flavor.<\/li>\n<li>Once seared, remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>4. Prepare the Butternut Squash:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the sliced red onion and butternut squash cubes, saut\u00e9ing them for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.<\/li>\n<li>In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider, Dijon mustard, and honey. Pour this mixture over the squash and onions, stirring to coat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>5. Roast in the Oven:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nestle the seared pork loin back into the skillet with the butternut squash and onions. Ensure the pork is slightly elevated on the vegetables to ensure even cooking.<\/li>\n<li>Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 35 to 45 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145\u00b0F (63\u00b0C) and the squash is tender.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>6. Rest and Serve:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This is crucial for a juicy and tender result.<\/li>\n<li>Serve slices of the roast pork alongside the butternut squash and onion mixture. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 id=\"conclusion\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>This &quot;Savory Autumn Delight: Roast Pork and Butternut Squash Symphony&quot; is a perfect celebration of fall flavors, highlighted by the luscious textures and aromatic spices of the season.
