Step-by-Step Instructions for Beef Braciole
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Pound thin slices of boneless top round beef to about 1/8–1/4-inch thickness.
- In a mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped parsley, shredded cheese, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper to create the filling.
- Lay prosciutto on each beef slice, spoon filling on top, roll tightly, and secure with toothpicks.
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and brown the beef rolls on all sides for about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Deglaze the pot with dry red wine, scraping up any browned bits and allow to boil for 2-3 minutes.
- Add beef broth, crushed tomatoes, sliced garlic, and Italian seasoning to create the braising liquid. Return beef rolls to the pot, submerged in the liquid.
- Cover the pot with parchment paper and a lid, and braise in the oven for 1.5 to 2 hours, turning rolls halfway through.
- For stovetop cooking, let the pot simmer on low for about 1.5 hours or use a slow cooker for 3-4 hours on high or 7-8 hours on low.
- Transfer cooked beef rolls to a platter, tent with foil, and optionally thicken sauce with a flour slurry.
- Adjust seasoning, garnish with fresh parsley and serve with pasta or polenta.
