Welcome to Paulina Cocina! Today we're bringing you a beautiful pork shoulder recipe that takes 15 minutes to make. It couldn't be better! I know some of you read this pork shoulder recipe and are already thinking of something glazed, marinated, or complicated.
Not at all, my friends. Pork is cooler than you think! It's just that it got a bad rap for a few centuries! Pork shoulder is like that coworker everyone told you was terrible, and you avoided her for months, until one day when the chips were burning (metaphorically speaking, unless you work in a kitchen and the chips were actually burning!), she gave you a hand and you said, "Look how cool!"
And it doesn't end there, afterwards you go out for a beer to celebrate that everything turned out well in the end and you realize that she's a great girl and becomes your best friend.
That's pork loin, your new best friend. But like anything new, you have to know where to start, and I think this pork loin recipe is a great first step for getting to know each other. Well, maybe from your friend to your lover, I don't know, the comparison fell apart for me.
The important thing here is that you make this pork loin recipe and then tell me, out of 1 to 1,000, how much you liked it!
about this 15-minute pork loin recipe
What I like most about this quick pork loin is that it has lemon, making it a very fresh recipe, perfect for summer! The rind gives it a very unique flavor, and the juice helps the pork loin cook.
If you're feeling adventurous, grate a little ginger on top, and it'll be divine too; it blends the flavors so well. You can order the pork loin steaks from your local butcher; it's a fatty cut, but that's the point, folks! If you want, you can trim the thick fat from the sides.
You can make it with another cut of pork, such as ham or sirloin , although they have different cooking times. Actually, this recipe takes 15 minutes to make; between preparing the steaks, searing them, and finishing them, it takes 15 minutes or less!
If you like quick pork recipes, here are some mustard ribs in 20 minutes!
I hope you enjoy it!

- Salt, pepper and oil
Pork loin recipe
with lemon and in 15 minutes!
- First, we'll remove the thick fat from the pork loin steaks, season them with salt and pepper, and place them in a bowl or deep plate. We'll cover them with lemon zest on both sides and set aside for a while—the longer the better.
- Now, let's heat a little olive oil in a pan. Cook the pork loin steaks until golden brown on both sides—not too much, about 3 minutes per side. The idea is to sear them well!
- Reduce the heat and sprinkle the pork shoulder with lemon juice. Let it cook for another minute.
- Serve and eat immediately. You can accompany it with some chard fritters —it's heaven!
Oh, pork loin! You make me sigh.
I think I'm in love
It came out delicious. My whole family is happy!
I tried it with chicken too and it was delicious!!
Hi Paulina, first I wanted to thank you. Countless of your recipes have saved my potatoes on several occasions. Question: If you cook the pork shoulder for about a minute or so, wouldn't they be a little undercooked?
