A great meat dish to along with pasta, rice, sandwiches or with veggies! Savoury and salty with a hint of lime, this dish is absolutely mouthwatering.
Slice into the top of the roast with a sharp blade in a criss cross fashion. In a large ziploc bag, place the roast and cover it in water. Add in salt, zest of the limes, the limes cut into slices, paprika, cayenne, and the clove of garlic. Seal then shake the bag gently to evenly distribute everything and place it in the fridge overnight or if you're making it during the day, for around 12 hours.
Preheat the oven to 300F. Take the beef loin out of the brining solution, and put in a cast iron pan with a little olive oil to cover the bottom and on top. Leave loin in the oven for around 1.5 hours or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 140F. If you have a nice cap of fat on the top, turn the oven on broil for a few minutes and crisp up the top. If not, just skip broiling!
Let the roast rest then slice thinly for sandwich meat, and a little thicker for eating with pasta, rice, salads, or with veggies.
