- garlic: because pretty much every good recipe has some garlic in it!
- olive oil: gotta have a little olive oil in there to help thin things out.
- lemon zest: this add some much-needed acidity.
- dried basil leaves, oregano leaves, thyme leaves: I love this combination of herbs!
- kosher salt + ground black pepper: because you always have to season things a little bit to bring out the flavor.
How Long Should I Marinate Pork
You can marinate pork (and specifically pork loin) for up to 24 hours, but you should really make sure you are marinating at least 30 minutes for it to absorb some of the flavor.

Step One: gather your ingredients.
Step Two: Mix your marinade together and then cover the pork loin with it. Ensure it marinates for at least 30 minutes, but up to overnight.
Step Three: cook your pork loin however you want – smoking, grilling, roasting, etc.
