Method

1

Inizia preparando la marinata: schiaccia gli spicchi d'aglio in un mortaio e uniscili all'olio d'oliva, sale, origano, pepe e paprika, mescolando fino a ottenere un composto omogeneo.

2

Prendi la pulcinella di maiale e pratica delle incisioni profonde sulla carne per permettere alla marinata di penetrare bene.

3

Distribuisci uniformemente la marinata sulle incisioni e sulla superficie della carne, massaggiando bene per insaporire.

4

Trasferisci la carne in un recipiente, versa il succo di limone e aggiungi il rosmarino. Copri con pellicola e lascia marinare in frigorifero per almeno 4 ore, meglio se tutta la notte.

5

Preriscalda il forno a 180°C. Rimuovi la carne dalla marinata e mettila in una teglia, cuocendo per circa 2 ore, coperta con alluminio.

6

Dopo 2 ore, scopri la carne e alza la temperatura a 200°C. Continua la cottura per altri 30-40 minuti, fino a quando la carne è ben caramellata e raggiunge una temperatura interna di 75°C.

7

Una volta cotta, lascia riposare la carne per 15 minuti prima di affettare e servire.
