Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef top sirloin roast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, rosemary, thyme, parsley, black pepper, minced garlic, and lemon zest. Mix well to create the herb rub.
Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels, which will help the herb mixture adhere better.
Rub the herb mixture generously all over the beef, ensuring it is well coated.
Place the beef roast on a wire rack in a roasting pan to allow even heat circulation. Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the roast without touching bone.
Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven. Roast for about 1.5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare or adjust according to your desired level of doneness.
Once cooked to your liking, remove from the oven and tent the roast with aluminum foil. Allow it to rest for at least 15 minutes; this will help the juices redistribute and result in a juicier roast.
Carve the roast into thin slices and serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
