Step 3. Spread the aromatic marinade evenly over the pork. The kitchen brush comes in handy at this stage, helping to ensure a quick, efficient process.

Step 4. In each pocket of the pork loin, tuck in pieces of onion, apple, and bacon. But that's not all – also, scatter chopped cone cabbage around the loin in the baking dish.

Step 5. Drizzle the additional marinade over the prepped dish. Then, cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in a preheated oven for 1.5 hours set to 356 degrees Fahrenheit. After this time, remove the foil to bake it uncovered for an additional 30 minutes.

Step 6. Serve the ready dish sprinkled with chopped parsley. This dish never fails to thrill my loved ones!
