  • Simple yet elegant, perfect for any occasion

Ingredients

  • One 5-pound prime rib roast
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons coarse sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C). Take your prime rib roast and let it come to room temperature, about 20-30 minutes. Mix together the rosemary, thyme, sage, garlic, salt, and pepper with olive oil to create a paste. Rub this herb paste generously all over the roast, ensuring it's evenly coated. Place the prime rib on a rack in a roasting pan, bone-side down. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue cooking for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Let the prime rib rest for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad for a complete, unforgettable meal.
