Roasted Prime Rib with Thyme and Marsala
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- One 6-pound bone-in beef prime rib roast, trussed
- 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1 cup sweet marsala
- 3 tablespoons arrowroot
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- For the beef: Allow the beef to stand at room temperature before roasting, 30 minutes.
- Place an oven rack in the center of the oven.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Mix together the thyme, salt, pepper and garlic in a small bowl.
- Make 1-inch-long, 1/2-inch-deep slits all over the meat using a paring knife.
- Rub the garlic mixture into the slits and onto the rest of the meat.
- Place the meat, fat-side up, in a shallow roasting pan.
- Roast for 45 minutes.
- Cover the meat with foil and continue to roast until a meat thermometer inserted straight down into the center of the meat registers 145 degrees F for medium-rare, 65 to 75 minutes.
- Place the roast on a baking sheet and tent with foil.
- Allow to rest for 20 minutes.
- For the sauce: Combine any juices from the rested meat with the broth, marsala, arrowroot and thyme in a medium saucepan.
- Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Reduce the heat and simmer until thick, 20 minutes.
- Whisk in the butter until smooth and season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the sauce into a serving pitcher.
- Slice the roast into 1/2-inch-thick slices and arrange on a platter.
- Serve the sauce alongside.
