Ingredients:

• 3 lb beef roast (such as ribeye or sirloin)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
• 2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 lb green beans, trimmed
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a herb paste.
3. Rub the herb paste all over the beef roast, ensuring it is evenly coated.
4. Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan and roast in the preheated oven for about 1.5 hours, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (135°F for medium-rare).
5. While the beef is roasting, prepare the baby potatoes. Toss halved potatoes with olive oil, salt, and grated Parmesan cheese in a large bowl.
6. Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast in the oven alongside the beef for about 30-40 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
7. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the trimmed green beans and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender but still crisp.
8. Add lemon juice to the green beans for a fresh finish.
9. Once the roast beef is done, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
10. Serve the sliced roast beef with Parmesan baby potatoes and sautéed green beans on the side.
