Sicilian-Style Meat Roll
Ingredients List
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
½ cup tomato juice
-
¾ cup soft bread crumbs
-
2 tablespoons snipped fresh parsley
-
½ teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
-
¼ teaspoon sea salt
-
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
-
1 clove garlic, minced
-
2 pounds lean ground beef
-
1 (6 ounce) package thinly sliced ham
-
1 (6 ounce) package sliced mozzarella cheese
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs and tomato juice. Stir in breadcrumbs, parsley, oregano, salt, pepper, garlic, and ground beef. Mix thoroughly. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
On a sheet of foil or wax paper, press and shape the meat mixture into a 10x8 inch rectangle. Layer ham slices on top of the meat, leaving a small border around the edges. Tear the cheese slices and scatter them over the ham, reserving one slice whole.
-
Starting from one short edge, carefully roll up the meat using the foil or wax paper to assist. Seal the ends and edges of the roll. Place the roll seam-side down in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 75 minutes. Cut the reserved slice of cheese into 4 triangles and arrange them on top of the meat roll. Bake for an additional 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
