Preparation
- Marinate the Meat
- Rub the meat generously with salt, pepper, and your
chosen spices.
- Mix minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs.
Coat the meat evenly and let it marinate for at least 2 hours (preferably
overnight) in the refrigerator.
- Prepare the Vegetables (if using)
- Wash and cut the vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
- Toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary.
Cooking
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven
- Set your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Sear the Meat
- In a hot pan, sear the meat on all sides until it
forms a golden-brown crust. This step locks in the juices and enhances
flavor.
- Roast the Meat
- Place the seared meat on a roasting rack or tray. Add
the seasoned vegetables around the meat.
- Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes per pound of
meat for medium-rare (adjust according to your preference).
- Monitor the Temperature
- Use a meat thermometer to check doneness:
- Medium-rare: 57°C (135°F)
- Medium: 63°C (145°F)
- Well-done: 71°C (160°F)

Resting
and Serving
- Rest the Meat
- Remove the meat from the oven and let it rest for
10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute,
ensuring every bite is moist and flavorful.
- Serve
- Slice the meat against the grain and serve with the
roasted vegetables. Garnish with fresh herbs for an elegant touch.
Tips
for Success
- Quality Matters:
Use fresh, high-quality meat for the best results.
- Experiment with Spices: Customize the seasoning to your taste.
- Patience is Key:
Don’t rush the resting process—it’s essential for tender meat.
