Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Flank steak
- 0.5 cup Sun-dried tomatoes in oil
- 2 cups Fresh spinach
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.75 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 feet Kitchen twine
Instructions
Prepare the flank steak by placing it on a cutting board and using a sharp knife to butterfly it. Cut horizontally through the thickest part, being careful not to cut all the way through. Open the steak like a book and gently flatten it with a meat mallet until approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Season both sides of the steak with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Set aside.
Prepare the stuffing by finely chopping the sun-dried tomatoes and mincing the garlic cloves.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Stir until well mixed.
Spread the stuffing evenly over the surface of the butterflied flank steak, leaving about 1/2 inch of border around the edges.
Starting from one of the short edges, tightly roll the steak into a log. Secure the roll by tying kitchen twine around it at 1-inch intervals.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat a cast iron skillet or oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sear the steak roll on all sides until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the steak reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare or your desired level of doneness.
Remove the steak pinwheel from the oven and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the kitchen twine.
Slice the pinwheel into 1-inch thick rounds and serve immediately. Pair with your favorite side dishes or a light salad for a complete meal.
