Instructions
Creating Roast Beef with Garlic and Herb Breadcrumb Crust is straightforward. Follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Beef: Season the beef roast generously with salt and pepper. If using, spread Dijon mustard evenly over the surface of the roast.
3. Make the Breadcrumb Mixture: In a bowl, combine the fresh breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme, rosemary, grated Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. Mix until well combined.
4. Coat the Roast: Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top and sides of the roast, ensuring an even coating.
5. Roast the Beef: Place the beef on a roasting rack in a baking dish. Roast in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
6. Check Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
7. Let it Rest: Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
8. Slice and Serve: Once rested, slice the roast against the grain and serve with your choice of sides.
