Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Pinwheels:
    • 1 lb flank steak, pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
    • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
    • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
    • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
    • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • For the Marinade:
    • 1/4 cup olive oil
    • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
    • 1 tsp dried oregano
    • 1 tsp dried basil

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, oregano, and basil to create the marinade.
  2. Place the flank steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it is well coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, salt, and pepper until well blended.
  5. Spread the filling evenly over the marinated flank steak.
  6. Starting from one end, tightly roll the steak into a log shape and secure with kitchen twine or toothpicks.
  7. Place the rolled steak on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.
  8. Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into pinwheels and serve.

Notes

  • Make-ahead: You can prepare the pinwheels a day in advance and store them in the refrigerator before baking.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
