pound
boneless beef sirloin steak, cut about 1-1/2 inch thick
-
1/2
teaspoon
salt
-
1/4
teaspoon
black pepper
-
1/4
teaspoon
dried parsley flakes
-
1
cup
lightly packed fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped
-
1/4
cup
finely chopped onion
-
4
cloves garlic, minced
-

teaspoons
fresh rosemary, finely snipped, or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
-
1/8
teaspoon
fresh thyme, finely snipped, or dried thyme, crushed
-
1
teaspoon
olive oil
Directions
- With sharp knife, make 5 lengthwise slits 3/4 of the way through steak.
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, and parsley flakes; rub over the steak. In the same bowl, combine basil, onion, garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Press basil mixture into the slits. Using 100 percent cotton string, tie steak loosely at 2-inch intervals to close the slits and hold the filling in. Drizzle with oil.
- In a grill with a cover, arrange medium-hot coals around drip pan for indirect grilling. Test for medium heat above pan. Place meat on grill rack over drip pan, not over coals.
- Cover and grill until meat reaches desired doneness. (Allow 32 to 36 minutes for medium-rare and 36 to 40 minutes for medium.)
- Transfer meat to a carving board; remove strings. Cover with foil and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Carve into 1/2-inch slices. Makes 6 servings.
