Season the beef with salt and black pepper.
Około 1 min
- 3
Distribute the prosciutto, pecorino romano cheese, minced garlic, and fresh parsley evenly over each beef slice.
Około 5 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Don't overfill the braciole to ensure they roll and stay together easily.
- 4
Carefully roll each beef slice tightly, then secure with kitchen twine or toothpicks.
Około 5 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Ensure they are tightly rolled to prevent filling from escaping during cooking.

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Około 2 min

Sear the braciole on all sides until nicely browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove them from the pot and set aside.
Około 10 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Browning adds significant depth of flavor to the sauce.

Add the chopped yellow onion to the same pot and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Około 7 min
