Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp canola oil
- 2 1/2 lb eye of round beef roast
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 small red bell pepper, diced
- 1 small yellow bell pepper, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
- 1 cup shredded Asiago cheese
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Parsley Garlic Crust:
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Pinch each salt and pepper
- 2 Tbsp canola oil
Instructions
- Heat oil in large non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook onion, red and yellow pepper, garlic, parsley and thyme for about 15 minutes or until softened and starting to brown. Remove from heat and stir in cheese, salt and pepper; set aside to cool slightly.
- Slice roast lengthwise almost all the way through the centre using a chef’s knife. Repeat on both sides of the roast. Using a meat pounder, pound the roast to about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thickness. Spread pepper mixture over roast and roll up, jelly roll style. Tie roast with kitchen string at about 2-inch (5 cm) intervals.
- Topping: Stir together parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. Rub oil all over roast and then sprinkle all over with parsley mixture.
- Place roast on rack in roasting pan and place in 450ºF (230ºC) oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 275ºF (140ºC) and cook for about 1 hour and 45 minutes or until meat thermometer reaches 145ºF (63ºC) for medium-rare. Remove from oven; cover loosely and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
