Notes
*A tip for quickly removing fresh rosemary and thyme from their stem: hold the tip of the stem in one hand, and place the forefinger and thumb of the other hand below the tip. Pull downward toward the stem and the leaves will easily come off.
Storing leftover
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave taking care not to over heat which can dry the pork out.
