1

Season the picanha with coarse salt and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

2

After 30 minutes, remove some of the salt to avoid it being too salty.

3

Place the picanha in the oven with the fat side up.

4

Roast in the oven without aluminum foil for 40-50 minutes, depending on your preference for doneness.

5

After about 35 minutes, check the picanha and flip it over, then roast for an additional 10 minutes.

6

Remove the picanha from the oven after nearly 40 minutes.

7

In a skillet on the stove, add 3 onions and cook them until caramelized.

8

Once the onions are caramelized, return the picanha to the skillet with the onions.

9

If you prefer the picanha more well-done, return it to the oven for an additional 5 minutes.

10

Check the doneness of the picanha before serving.
