Name: Argentinean Beef Melt
Total time: 35 min
Yield: 4
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: refrigerated fully cooked boneless beef pot roast with gravy; crusty rolls; red bell pepper; provolone cheese; fresh parsley; garlic; lime; olive oil; salt

Ingredients

12 ounces cooked beef pot roast or brisket, shredded
4 slices crusty bread (about 6 x 3 x 1/2-inch)
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch thick strips
4 slices reduced-fat or regular provolone cheese

Chimichurri Sauce:

3/4 cup packed fresh parsley, chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Place bread slices in single layer on baking sheet. Place bell pepper strips on foil-line baking sheet coated with nonstick cooking spray. Bake bread in 350°F oven 10 to 13 minutes, turning once. Roast peppers 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Set aside.

Cooking Tip: One half cup jarred roasted red peppers, thinly sliced, may be substituted for fresh red bell pepper and omit roasting peppers in this step.
Step 2

Meanwhile, place parsley and garlic in food processor or blender container. Cover; process until finely chopped. Add lime juice, oil, and salt; process just until blended.
Step 3

Spread Chimichurri Sauce evenly on one side of each bread slice; top evenly with pot roast and red pepper strips. Top each bread slice with cheese. Place on baking sheet. Bake in 350°F oven 7 to 10 minutes or until beef is heated through and cheese is melted.
