Ingredients

• 2 pounds flank steak
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 0.5 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 12 pieces toothpicks or kitchen twine

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lay the flank steak flat on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to butterfly it by slicing horizontally through the middle of the steak (but not all the way through) and opening it like a book. Lightly pound the steak with a meat mallet to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch.

Step 3

Season the steak with salt, pepper, and half of the minced garlic on both sides.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the remaining garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Spread the cooked spinach mixture evenly over the butterflied steak. Layer on the sun-dried tomatoes, shredded mozzarella cheese, and chopped basil.

Step 6

Starting at one end, tightly roll up the steak, keeping the filling inside as you roll. Secure the roll with toothpicks or tie it with kitchen twine at 1-2 inch intervals.

Step 7

Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the rolled steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare or 145°F (63°C) for medium.

Step 9

Remove the steak from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Remove toothpicks or twine before serving.

Step 10

Slice the rolled steak into pinwheels and serve warm. Enjoy!
