Tri-tip is lean and flavorful, so a simple herb rub and careful slicing make a big difference. Sear first, roast gently, then slice across the grain.

Ingredients

• 1 beef tri-tip roast
• 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 Tbsp chopped rosemary
• 1 tsp smoked paprika

Directions

1. Rub the tri-tip with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, and smoked paprika.
2. Let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
3. Sear both sides in a hot skillet for 2 to 3 minutes per side.
4. Roast at 375 F until the center reaches 130 to 135 F.
5. Rest 10 minutes, then slice thinly across the grain.
