Hi friends! Sometimes I wonder if there is a way to make a grilled flank steak taste better than it should. As you already know, flank steak is a tough cut to reallllly make it stand out without days and days and days of marinating and/or cooking in the slow cooker.  So, I decided to reinvent the grilled flank steak.

Mind if I suggest… a grilled flank steak stuffed pinwheel? Everybody loves those party pinwheels made out of flour tortillas, cream cheese and cold cuts, right? So, why not stuff a flank steak with gooey cheese and roll it up? And, on top of all that goodness, grill it to bring out that flavor!

Excellent idea! 

Grilled flank steak stuffed pinwheels

Ingredients

  • 5 pound flank steak
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon seasoning blend: roasted garlic and herb or similar blend
  • ½ teaspoon ground onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon basil puree (or pesto)
  • 8 slices provolone cheese slices
  • 1 cup spinach leaves
  • 4 slices turkey pastrami

Instructions

  1. Pound steak with rolling pin or mallet until about a quarter-of-an-inch thickness. Liberally sprinkle all sides with sea salt and seasoning blend and rub with olive oil. Marinade 24 hours in fridge.
  2. Remove from fridge and let sit for one hour prior to prepping.
  3. Roll out parchment paper and layer all ingredients in this order: onion power, basil puree, cheese, spinach, and pastrami. Roll up and tie.
  4. Grill on gas grill at 400 degrees and turn every 6 minutes until internal temperature is at least 145 degrees. If you plan on reheating later in the over before serving, remove from heat at this point. If you plan on eating right away, keep on heat an additional 6 -10 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat, cover loosely with tinfoil and let sit for at least 10 minutes. Remove twine, slice and serve.
  6. Enjoy!

For those of us who like a little more instruction and visuals, let me provide a few more tips. To start off, you will want to pound a flank steak to give it an even surface for rolling up. Plus, all that pounding will tenderize it as an added benefit.

I highly recommend provolone cheese since it keeps it shape when heated. That means you won’t have a gooey mess all over your grill. Instead, you’ll have a gooey delightful stuffed grilled flank steak! After you layer your steak, roll it up and tie up with twine to keep everything inside… kept inside.

Grilling comes next and once thoroughly cooked, you will remove from heat and set aside. This will allow all the juices to suck back into the meat, so to speak. Doing this makes the most of your beef investment because it will makes it juicier and tastier! Who doesn’t like that? And you’ll feel good knowing that grain-fed beef means a diet high in soymeal. Approximately 97 percent of the soybean meal produced when oil is extracted is used to feed livestock. Half protein, the remaining half is mostly indigestible carbohydrates which can be removed to create protein isolates and concentrates.

Slice and serve and you are good to go! The best part of this method is you can remove from the grill before thoroughly cooked and set aside for a future event by heating in the oven, which will finalize the cooking process.

Happy grilling.

This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my t This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my tub with all my handmade serving bowls (and one lovely @lecreuset dish), they all came crashing to the floor.⁠
⁠
Crash!⁠
Smash!⁠
Shock.⁠
⁠
Honestly, I was happy I used them all the time, and they had a good run.⁠

I learned long time ago to use what you have. Otherwise, why have it?

Print, bookmark, or pin this Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Slider recipe. Better yet, make it for dinner!⁠
⁠
You know I’m all about being helpful. And healthy! I’ve also been afraid to walk down that frozen or prepared foods aisle at the store, thinking, “Nope, not for me. They’re not healthy.” ⁠
⁠
I feel good about @kevins.natural.foods because I know I can still eat well by keeping them on hand, whether for the four-o-clock pinch or meal planning.⁠
⁠
I first tried Kevin’s Cauliflower Mac n Cheese when it was a special buy at Aldi’s. The ingredients were simple and pure, and we were delighted to discover they tasted great!⁠
⁠
Kevin’s also has a line of delicious five-minute entrees like Peppercorn Steak, Cilantro Lime Chicken, and Roasted Garlic Chicken.⁠
⁠
My recipe for Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Sliders only has seven ingredients and seven steps. Best of all, you can complete it from skillet to table in ten minutes!⁠

Turkey?⁠

Green bean casserole?⁠
⁠
Mashed potatoes?⁠

Sweet potato casserole?⁠

Corn?⁠
⁠
Peas?⁠
⁠
Gravy?⁠

The correct answer is all of them! But mostly, you can’t have Thanksgiving without turkey, sweet potatoes, and veggies. It’s un-American.⁠

This crazy-awesome pie is stuffed with an abundance of shredded turkey, sweet potatoes, corn, peas, and gravy – Ding! Ding! Ding! – You guessed correctly! It also has ooey-gooey cheese and sour cream to add a layer of comforting delight.⁠
⁠
Link in bio for my Thanksgiving-inspired pot pie that uses three @wickspies 8″ raw circles. One for the base and two to cut lattice strips (using a ravioli cutter) so that it looks extra pretty. Of course, you could just use two raw circles. One for the base and one for the top. Just cut some slits on the top crust so that some ooey-gooey delightfulness can do its thang.⁠

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
