Stuffed Flank Steak

.

"The local Mexican market has thin sliced flank steak (Milanesa) on sale quite frequently. This is an excellent way to use some of that bargain meat. I marinate the meat in a bit of red wine and tomato paste to tenderize and add flavor." - promfh

Servings          
Original recipe makes 4 Servings
8 oz.fresh spinach; trimmed, and well rinsed
1/2 cupdried bread crumbs
1/2 cupParmesan cheese; , freshly-grated
1/4 cupolive oil
2 cloves garlic
3 red bell peppers; roasted
1 flank steak; (1 1/2 lbs.), butterflied
Salt; and freshly-ground black pepper to taste
Salt; & pepper to taste
4 oz.proscuitto; , thinly sliced
1 fresh hot cherry pepper; cored, seeded, minced

Stuffed Flank Steak Preparation

* Preheat oven to 350.

* Place the spinach in a saucepan with just the water that clings to the leaves. Cover and cook over medium heat until wilted, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and press out excess moisture with the back of a spoon.

* Combine the spinach, bread crumbs, Parmesan, oil, and garlic in a food processor and puree until thick and smooth. Transfer to a bowl.

* Peel, core, and seed the roasted peppers. Cut them in half.

* Open the steak on a work surface, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the proscuitto in one layer on the steak. Top with a layer of the roasted peppers. Then spread the spinach mixture over them, and sprinkle them with the minced cherry pepper.

* Starting with a long side, roll the steak up, jelly-roll style. Tie it with a string at 2-inch intervals, and brush with a little olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place the steak in a shallow roasting pan.

* Bake 40 minutes for medium-rare. Cool slightly, or to room temperature (recommended), before slicing and serving.

    My 'chief taste tester' says I can make this again. We both enjoyed it very much. The only difference with it was I used bacon instead of proscuitto.
