Andreas Viestads Vodka Marinated Sirloin Recipes

Steps:

• Rub the roast with the salt and pepper and place in a plastic zipper bag. Add the parsley, 2 tablespoons of the thyme, and the garlic, then pour in the vodka and olive oil. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 2 to 3 days, turning the bag twice a day.
• Before cooking, let the meat stand at room temperature for 1 or 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Remove the meat from the bag and reserve the marinade. Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat and sear the roast on all sides, about 4 to 6 minutes.
• Transfer the meat to a roasting pan and roast in the middle of the oven, turning once, for 1 to 1-1/4 hours or until a meat thermometer registers 130 degrees F; and before the roast is done, pour the reserved marinade over it (you can do it when you turn the roast over, as I did -- ).
• When done, transfer the meat to a cutting board and let it rest, uncovered, for at least 20 minutes; set the roasting pan aside.
• Just before serving, pour the cooking juices into a saucepan and heat gently. Stir in the butter, season with salt and pepper and the remaining 1 teaspoons thyme. Strain the sauce and discard the herbs.
• Carve the roast and arrange on a platter with the sauce on the side.
