• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon salt

4. Remove roast when instant-read thermometer registers 135° for medium rare; 150° for medium.  Transfer roast to carving board; tent loosely with aluminum foil.  Let stand 20 - 25 minutes.  (Temperature will continue to rise about 10°F to reach 145°F for medium rare; 160°F for medium)  Meanwhile, increase oven temperature to 475°F.  Stir vegetables and return to oven for 15 - 20 minutes or until desired doneness.
5. Carve roast across the grain into slices. Serve with vegetables. Coat all with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with parmesan.  Sprinkle with parsley, if desired.
