Roast stuffed with summer vegetables and prosciutto is a classic Italian dish that is typically made with pork or veal. This recipe combines the tender meat with crispy vegetables and salty prosciutto for a delicious and hearty meal. It is a perfect dish for a summer gathering or a cozy family dinner.

Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2.Slice the veal or beef roast down the middle, but not all the way through. Open the roast up like a book and lay flat.
3.Layer the zucchini, red bell pepper, and prosciutto sticks on top of the meat in a single layer. Sprinkle with thyme, rosemary, and garlic powder.
4.Starting at one end, tightly roll the meat up into a log shape. Tie with kitchen twine to keep it together.
5.In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the meat on all sides until browned. Add the fresh rosemary sprig, vegetable broth, white wine, kosher salt, and black pepper.
6.Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for about 60-75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135-140 degrees F for medium-rare or 150-155 degrees F for medium.
7.Let the meat rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving with the roasted vegetables and pan juices.
