SPINACH AND BLUE CHEESE-STUFFED FLANK STEAK
I'm always looking for great recipes and experiment alot. Every once in awhile, I discover one that just cries out to be shared. The following is just such a recipe. It really is very easy, but the flavor and presentation is quite "gourmet". My wife and I had it for dinner last night with nothing more than a side dish of herbed and garlic scalloped potatoes and a nice bottle of Pinot Noir. It was YUMMY!!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place the thawed spinach in the center of a kitchen towel. Holding the towel over the sink, twist it to squeeze excess water out of the spinach.
- Open the towel and place the spinach in a food processor, along with the pine nuts, blue cheese, and garlic. Pulse until the ingredients form a thick paste.
- Place the flank steak flat on a work surface and using your fingers and/or a silicone spatula, spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the entire steak.
- Roll the steak into a cylinder and, using kitchen twine, tie the roll securely about every two inches.
- Mix one tablespoons olive oil with seasoning salt, pepper and liquid smoke. Brush mixture over the whole outer surface of the steak roll.
- In a large, deep skillet over medium-high, heat the remaining oil. Add the steak roll and sear one side for about 1 1/2 minutes. Use tongs to rotate the roll 1/4 turn, searing for another 1 1/2 minutes. Continue until all sides are seared.
- Transfer the roll to a rack, place on a baking sheet or pan and place in oven to roast for 15 to 20 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roll reads 140 degrees F.

Steps:
- Defrost spinach in microwave. Wrap in clean kitchen towel and wring chopped spinach dry.
- Place a large skillet on the stove over medium high heat. Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil-to hot skillet. Add garlic to oil. Add onion and red pepper, cook 1 minute. Lower heat to medium. Add the prosciutto and the spinach. Season with salt and pepper. Add bread crumbs and cheese to spinach. Turn off heat. Let stuffing cool.
- To create the cavity for the stuffing, use a long sharp knife (like a boning knife), and cut a 1 to 2-inch hole through the center of the roast making a lengthwise slit. Turn the meat around and cut another slit in the same spot so that your knife completes the cavity. Insert a wooden spoon into the cavity to make sure the hole is even and goes all the way through.
- Put the cooled filling in a re-sealable plastic bag and snip a hole in the corner of the bag. Pipe the filling into the cavity. You may need to push it along with your fingers to make sure that it goes all the way through.
- Preheat nonstick skillet over high heat. Cut the roast into 6 even slices, being careful to keep the stuffing in each slice. Add 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil to the pan. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and sear in hot, nonstick skillet, 2 minutes on first side. Flip the steaks and sear for an additional 2 minutes then lower the heat to medium-high and cook until done (about 3 to 4 more minutes). Garnish with thinly sliced red pepper.
MARINATED FLANK STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE
Steps:
- Place the steak pieces between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or parchment and pound to 1/4- inch thickness. Cut into 4 equal pieces, diagonally, against the grain.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar and garlic. Put the steak into a sealable plastic bag with the marinade and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature, or 1 hour in the refrigerator.
- In the meantime, in a small bowl combine the blue cheese and buttermilk with a fork, mashing until creamy. Stir in the Worcestershire and set aside.
- Spray a large grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over medium-high heat. Cut the onion into 1/4-inch rounds brush both sides with the remaining tablespoon of oil and grill 6 minutes per side. Separate into rings and set aside.
- Remove the meat from the marinade and season both sides with salt and pepper. Discard the marinade. Cook the meat in the grill pan over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Arrange 3 radicchio leaves and a pile of onions on each serving plate. Top with a piece of steak. Drizzle with blue cheese sauce and top with a sprinkling of parsley.

Tips for Making Grilled Flank Steak Stuffed with Spinach and Blue Cheese:
- Choose a flank steak that is at least 1 inch thick for best results. - To easily fill the flank steak, make a lengthwise cut down the center of the steak, stopping about 1 inch from the bottom. Open the steak like a book, and use a meat mallet to gently pound it until it is about 1/4 inch thick. - Don't overstuff the steak, or it will be difficult to roll up and secure. - Use a variety of fillings to create different flavor combinations. Some other options to try are roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, or mushrooms. - Cook the steak over medium-high heat to get a nice sear on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender. - Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it, to allow the juices to redistribute.Conclusion:
Grilled flank steak stuffed with spinach and blue cheese is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy flank steak, give this recipe a try.
