Ingredients

• 6 pieces Beef round steak (thinly sliced)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 6 slices Prosciutto
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Baby spinach leaves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion (diced)
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 28 ounces Canned crushed tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the beef slices on a cutting board and lightly pound them with a meat mallet to evenly thin them out, if needed.

Step 2

Season both sides of the beef with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Lay one slice of prosciutto on top of each piece of beef. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and layer a few spinach leaves evenly on top.

Step 4

Carefully roll each beef slice tightly into a roulade and secure it with toothpicks or kitchen twine.

Step 5

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the beef roulades and sear on all sides until browned (about 2-3 minutes per side). Remove roulades from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.

Step 7

Pour in the canned crushed tomatoes and stir in the dried basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Bring the sauce to a simmer.

Step 8

Return the seared roulades to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 40 minutes, occasionally spooning sauce over the roulades.

Step 9

Remove the toothpicks or kitchen twine from the roulades before serving.

Step 10

Plate the roulades with a generous spoonful of the tomato sauce and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot.
