Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound flank steak
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • ½ cup roasted red peppers, sliced
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • ¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Making Grilled Flank Steak Pinwheels can be a straightforward culinary adventure if you follow these easy steps:

  1. Prepare the Flank Steak: Start by placing the flank steak on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice it horizontally, making it about ½ inch thick. This ensures a tender outcome.
  1. Marinate the Steak: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Massage this marinade on both sides of the flank steak. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes for better flavor absorption.
  1. Prepare the Filling: Lay the marinated flank steak flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the baby spinach, roasted red peppers, mozzarella cheese, and feta cheese over the steak, leaving a small border around the edges.
  1. Roll the Steak: Carefully roll the flank steak, starting from one end to create a tight pinwheel. Be sure to keep the filling intact while rolling.
  1. Secure the Pinwheel: Once rolled, use toothpicks or kitchen twine to secure the pinwheel in several places. This will prevent the filling from spilling out during cooking.
  1. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high temperatures. Ensuring the grill is adequately heated is crucial for achieving those beautiful grill marks and an even cook.
  1. Grill the Pinwheels: Place the pinwheel on the grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare or up to 150°F for medium, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  1. Rest the Flank Steak Pinwheels: After grilling, remove the pinwheel from the grill and let it rest for about 10 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat juicy and tender.
  1. Slice and Serve: Carefully remove the toothpicks or twine, then slice the pinwheel into bite-sized pieces. Arrange them on a serving platter for everyone to enjoy!

Making Grilled Flank Steak Pinwheels is fun and rewarding, providing a stellar dish made simple!
