Garlic Rosemary Roast with Spaghetti Squash
Ingredients
- ½ tablespoons avocado oil, divided
- 2 medium spaghetti squash
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 pounds boneless beef chuck roast, if it's in 1 piece have the butcher slice it into several pieces (grass-fed if possible)
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 5 large garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 tablespoons tamari
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup beef broth
- ½ cup water
- 24 ounces mushrooms, we used oyster mushrooms
Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- 2. Slice the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
- 3. Drizzle a ½ tablespoon of avocado oil on the inside of the squash and place them cut side down on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Use a fork to prick the skins and roast for 30 minutes or until tender.
- 4. Once roasted, remove from the oven and reduce the heat to 325°F. Flip the squash cut side up to cool. Once cool, use a fork to scrape the “spaghetti” away from the peel.
- 5. Season the meat with salt and pepper. Then warm the remaining avocado oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven. Brown the meat on all sides, about 4 minutes each.
- 6.. Set the browned meat aside to rest while preparing the rest.
- 7. Add the onions to the Dutch oven over medium heat, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. After 2 minutes, add the garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Stir and sauté for another minute.
- 8. Add the tamari, Dijon, and beef broth, and water, then stir and bring to a boil. Add the meat back into the pot and cover with a lid. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Transfer the meat into the oven and cook for 2 hours.
- 9. After 2 hours, add the mushrooms into the Dutch oven, cover, and cook for an additional 30 minutes.
- 10. When the meat is tender, remove from the oven. Reheat the spaghetti squash and serve with a scoop of the beef and mushrooms over top. Garnish with extra thyme if desired.
