Mediterranean Stuffed And Rolled Flank Steak Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill for direct and indirect grilling. (If your grill has a thermometer, aim to keep the temperature at about 350 degrees F throughout grilling.) Cook the poblano and bell peppers on the grill, turning occasionally, until completely charred on the outside, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover with a plate to steam for about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill the onions until golden and soft, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Peel the poblano and bell peppers and remove and discard the stems and skins. Cut the flesh into 1/2-inch strips and set aside. (Keep the poblano strips separate from bell pepper strips.)
• Set the steak on a cutting board. Using a long thin knife and starting at the thin, narrow end of the steak, slice it in half horizontally leaving 2 inches of the meat uncut at the wide end of the steak so the pieces stay attached. Open it up like a book so you have one long piece. Pound the steak with a meat mallet to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.
• Arrange the steak flat on a work surface with a long side facing you. Combine the cilantro, tomato paste, oil, cumin, oregano, scallions and 2 teaspoons salt in a bowl. Spread the paste all over the top of the steak. Working in three batches, arrange vertical stripes of the poblanos, bell peppers, onions, and olives on the steak until the steak is covered, leaving 2 inches empty at each end.
• Roll up the steak like a jelly roll, starting at one of the short ends. Tie the steak closed around the circumference with butcher's twine at 2-inch intervals. Tie one more piece of twine lengthwise around the steak.
• Put the steak on the direct heat side of the grill and cook, turning, to brown all 4 sides, about 2 minutes per side. Move the steak to the indirect heat side of the grill, cover and cook, turning occasionally, until the center of the steak registers 115 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes for a steak that is well-done on the outside and medium-rare in the center. (Test frequently; the time will vary based on the temperature of your grill.) Let the steak rest about 10 minutes.
• Untie the steak and cut it into 6 thick slices.

Steps:

• Cut steak horizontally from a long side to within 1/2 in. of opposite side. Open steak so it lies flat; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/4-in. thickness. , In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, mustard, pepper and, if desired, lemon zest. Pour half of marinade into a large shallow dish; add beef and turn to coat; cover and refrigerate overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade., In a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in butter until tender. Remove from the heat; stir in parsley. Drain and discard marinade. Open steak; spoon filling over steak to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up tightly jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie with kitchen string. Place in a greased shallow roasting pan. Pour reserved marinade over steak., Cover and bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Uncover; baste with pan drippings. Bake 30 minutes longer or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°, medium, 140°, medium-well, 145°). Remove and keep warm. Meanwhile, transfer cooking juices to a saucepan; skim fat. Bring cooking juices to a boil. Mix cornstarch and broth until smooth. Stir into cooking juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Cut steak into slices; serve with sauce.

Steps:

• 1. Combine all the stuffing ingredients in a food processor and process until they form a smooth paste, about 45 to 60 seconds.
• 2. Prepare the flank steak by placing it between plastic wrap and pounding to a thickness of 1/3 inch; score on one side in a criss-cross pattern. Turn the steak over and season well with salt and pepper. Smooth all but 1 tablespoon of the stuffing over the entire steak; reserved stuffing will be used later in a sauce. Roll steak up and tie with kitchen twine in about 3 places. Place the steak, uncovered, in the refrigerator for at least two hours up to overnight (you want the outside to dry a bit and the inside to marinate).
• 3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and bring the steak to room temperature. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat; season steak on all sides generously with salt and pepper and sear well, in a little oil, on all sides.
• 4. Meanwhile combine reserved stuffing mixture, water, mustard, garlic, rosemary, and oils in a roasting pan or baking dish; place a rack for the meat on top. Place the meat on the rack, brush with pan juices, and roast to an internal temperature of 120 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
• 5. Let rest about 15 minutes, then slice into 1/4 inch slices; drizzle with pan sauce and more extra virgin olive oil if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, combine the stuffing mix, water and butter or margarine. Mix well and let stand for 5 minutes. Spoon the stuffing onto the steak, leaving a 1 inch border. Add the green onions and the red bell pepper.
• Roll from the long edge of the steak and secure with wooden toothpicks. Place steak seam side down in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a separate small bowl, combine the gravy, wine OR apple juice, garlic and cheese. Mix well and pour over the steak.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, remove from oven and let stand before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat broiler, with rack 4 inches from heat. In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.
• Add greens; cook until wilted, 5 minutes. Stir in soy sauce, sesame oil, and red-pepper flakes. Remove pot from heat.
• Place steak between sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/2 inch thick with a meat mallet or small skillet.
• Spread greens on steak, leaving a 2-inch border on one long side; season with salt and pepper. Roll up toward border.
• Tie crosswise with 5 or 6 pieces of kitchen twine. Rub steak with 1 teaspoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Place steak, seam side up, on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.
• Broil 5 minutes. Flip and broil until browned, 5 minutes for medium. Loosely tent with foil and let rest 10 minutes. Slice steak into 1/2-inch rounds.
