Ingredients

• 4 pounds beef top sirloin roast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).

Step 2

Remove the beef roast from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Pat the beef dry with paper towels. Brush the entire surface with Dijon mustard. This will help the herb mixture adhere to the meat and add a delicious tangy flavor.

Step 5

Coat the beef evenly with the herb and oil mixture, pressing it on with your hands to form a crust.

Step 6

Place the herb-crusted beef roast on a roasting rack set in a roasting pan.

Step 7

Roast in the preheated oven at 450°F (232°C) for 15 minutes. This will create a nice crust on the outside.

Step 8

Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (162°C) and continue roasting for approximately 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.

Step 9

Remove the roast from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute within the meat.

Step 10

Slice the beef thinly against the grain and serve warm. Enjoy your high protein herb-crusted roast beef!
