STUFFED FLANK STEAK



INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons pure vegetable oil
- 1 cup finely chopped mushrooms
- 1/2 cup diced yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 cups chopped fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup crispy Panko style plain bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil drained
- 1 pound premium angus flank steak pounded 1/4-inch thick
- - kitchen string
DIRECTIONS
In large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onions, garlic and Italian seasoning; salt and pepper to taste. Sauté until softened (about 3-5 minutes).
Add spinach; continue sautéing until wilted and all liquid has evaporated (about 3-5 minutes). Remove from heat; stir in cheese, bread crumbs and tomatoes. Set aside.
Season steak with salt and pepper to taste. Spread spinach mixture over steak to ½-inch from edges. Starting with edge going with the grain, roll-up steak (parallel to the grain). Tie up with kitchen string every 2-inches.
In large oven-proof skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Place steak in pan and sear on all sides (about 3-4 minutes). Transfer skillet to a preheated 425°F oven. Roast 20-25 minutes or until desired doneness is reached (135°F for medium rare; 150°F for medium).
Transfer steak to carving board; tent loosely with aluminum foil. Allow to sit 10-15 minutes (internal temperature will continue to rise to 145°F for medium rare and 160°F for medium while resting).
Remove string; carve into 1-inch thick slices.
