Chef Tips

- Baste the piece with the liquid from the bottom of the roasting pan using a ladle or spoon every half hour so the top does not dry out. - Slice the bottom sirloin into very thin strips against the muscle fiber with a long, very sharp meat knife. - Use a good quality full-bodied dry red wine to provide balanced acidity and an attractive dark color to the sauce.

Variations

- Make holes in the piece with a pointed knife and insert strips of bacon and carrot sticks before marinating. - Add whole baby potatoes with skin and small onions to the baking sheet during the last hour of roasting. - Add a tablespoon of toasted wheat flour to the broth remaining in the pan to thicken into a velvety sauce.

Substitutions

- Coxão mole can be substituted with round beef, coxão duro, or whole top sirloin with equivalent oven time. - The dry red wine can be replaced by dark homemade beef broth added with two tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce. - The olive oil can be swapped for sunflower oil with two tablespoons of melted unsalted butter.

How to Store

Keep the sliced beef round submerged in its sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the covered pan over low heat with a splash of water or broth so that the lean meat remains tender.

Can You Freeze It?

You can freeze the slices wrapped in the sauce for up to 3 months in airtight containers suitable for the freezer. Thaw in the refrigerator and heat slowly in a skillet or pan before bringing to the table.

What to Serve With

It is the perfect piece for Sunday lunch alongside white rice, classic vegetable mayonnaise, and egg farofa. Cold slices also work excellently as a sandwich filling in French bread with vinaigrette.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the eye of round roasted in the oven not get dry because it is a lean meat?

The half cup of olive oil joined with the red wine and constant basting every 30 minutes preserves the moisture of the muscle fibers.

Como saber se a carne já atingiu o ponto de maciez ideal?

Espete um garfo de churrasco no centro da peça; ele deve entrar e sair suavemente sem prender nas fibras.

Why is covering with foil crucial during the first half of the baking time?

The aluminum foil retains the vapors of the wine and meat juices, cooking the interior of the thick piece without toasting prematurely.

Can I marinate the top round steak the day before in the refrigerator?

Yes, leaving it in the marinade for 12 hours deeply intensifies the aromas of garlic, olive oil, and herbs in the meat.
