Lay the beef flank steak flat on a cutting board. Cover with plastic wrap and use a meat mallet to pound evenly to about 1/4-inch thickness.
In a bowl, combine fresh spinach, sundried tomatoes, minced garlic, and chopped basil leaves.
Season the steak with salt and black pepper.
Spread the spinach mixture evenly over the seasoned steak.
Starting from one of the shorter ends, tightly roll the steak into a log.
Secure the roll by inserting toothpicks at 1-inch intervals all the way through the steak roll.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut between the toothpicks to create individual pinwheels.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the pinwheels to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until the beef is browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Remove from heat and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Remove toothpicks before serving and enjoy your Paleo Beef Plank Pinwheels.
