Description
A rich and savory stuffed beef roast that is tender enough to slice with a spoon, featuring a breadcrumb-Parmesan filling and complemented by the fresh taste of spinach.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 pounds beef roast
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups beef broth
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels and trim any excessive exterior fat.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then sauté the diced onions and minced garlic until translucent.
- In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, spinach, sautéed onions and garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Create a pocket in the roast and fill it with the mixture, pressing gently to distribute evenly.
- Place the roast seam-side down in a roasting pan, pour beef broth around it, and cover tightly with foil.
- Roast for 2 to 2.5 hours until tender, removing foil for the last 30 minutes of cooking to brown the top.
- Let the roast rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing against the grain.
Notes
For best results, allow the roast to come to room temperature before cooking. Use an instant-read thermometer to check for doneness.
