Stuffed Flank Steak



Lately we do not eat a lot of red meat.  However a few times a month we just have to have some.  This week I went with some flank steak.  I saw an interesting recipe online, sadly I did not have all the ingredients.  So I was forced to improvise with what I had in the fridge.  This delicious steak is stuffed with salami, provolone, spinach, and red peppers. All the favors worked beautifully together.  It paired well with a side of creamy tortellini pasta with asparagus.



Recipe:
2 lb flank steak, pounded little thin
2 roasted red peppers ( I had some in a jar)
5 slices of genoa salami , enough to cover meat in one layer ( or prosciutto)
4 slices of provolone, enough to cover meat in one layer
1 1/2 cup of fresh baby spinach 


Lay steak flat, layer salami, cheese, peppers, and spinach on top.  Roll steak and secure with cooking twine. ( or if like me and don't have any on hand some toothpicks). In a skillet with little olive oil cook 3-4 minutes on each side.  Place in a roasting pan and in a oven at 375 cook for 20 minutes.  Test with meat thermometer to make sure meat is 155-160.
