Butterflied Beef Eye Roast - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 lbs lean eye of round roast, butterflied
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
3 minced garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon fresh thyme

Preparation

Slice the roast down the middle, open it, and lay it flat in a shallow baking dish.
In a small bowl combine the remaining ingredients and pour the mixture over the roast.
Cover and let the meat marinate for at least 12 hours. Turn the roast occasionally.
Remove the roast from the marinade, discard the marinade, and place the roast on a rack in the broiler pan.
Broil the roast 5 to 7 inches from the heat, turning occasionally, for 20 to 25 minutes or until desired degree of doneness.
Remove from oven, cover with foil, and let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
Transfer to a serving platter, spoon any juices over the top, and serve.
