shallow roasting pan. Coat loin with cooking spray; sprinkle with Italian

registers 160. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Whisk cornstarch and next 3 ingredients in a small heavy saucepan. Bring

the center, cutting to, but not through the bottom. Starting from center
cut, make a horizontal cut toward 1 side, stopping 1/2 inch from edge.
Repeat on opposite side. Unfold loin so that it is flat.

Flatten loin evenly to about a 12x8 inch rectangle using a meat mallet or
rolling pin.

After stuffing and rolling, tie the loin at 2 inch intervals with heavy
string or kitchen twine. Be sure to bake seam side down.
