Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Beef flank steak
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 4 slices Smoked bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 teaspoons Dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the flank steak on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, butterfly the steak by slicing it horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through. Open up the steak and flatten it out.
Cover the steak with plastic wrap and gently pound it with a meat mallet to an even thickness.
In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, crumbled bacon, shredded mozzarella, garlic powder, onion powder, dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Remove the plastic wrap and spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the flattened steak.
Layer the fresh spinach leaves over the cream cheese mixture.
Starting from a long side, gently roll the steak up tightly, encasing the filling. Secure with kitchen twine at regular intervals.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef pindwheel and sear on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Remove from the oven and allow the beef to rest for 5 minutes before slicing the pinwheel roll into individual servings.
Serve warm and garnish with additional herbs if desired.
