This is one of my favorite ways to cook steak. It looks like it takes hours in the kitchen but is quite easy. A very elegant roast ; serve it to your company to impress. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs flank steaks |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1/2 red bell pepper, sliced thin |
30 baby spinach leaves, washed stems removed |
1/3 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded |
salt and pepper |
kitchen twine |
Directions:
1. Pound flank steak to about 1/4 thick and as square as possible.
2. Slightly score cross grain with sharp knife (this will help it roll easier).
3. In small bowl add minced garlic, oil and vinegar pour over steak and marinade overnight.
4. Preheat oven to 350°F.
5. Place steak on plastic wrap on counter, scored side down!
6. Place baby spinach on steak followed by thin strips of red bell pepper, sprinkle with cheese,salt and pepper leaving 1/4 diameter around steak.
