Taste of Home
If you’re a steak lover looking for a versatile cut of meat that’s not too expensive, flank steak is the way to go. It can be broiled, seared, grilled or braised and doesn’t take too long to cook, thanks to the thinner cut. It’s a lean cut of meat without a lot of fat or marbling running through it, so it also makes a great option for a ton of different steak recipes—like steak sandwiches or steak salads. If you’re hosting a dinner party and looking for an elegant dish to really wow your guests, stuffed flank steak is an impressive dish that’s easy to master with a few simple steps.
In this recipe, mushrooms and onions get sauteed with butter and parsley to create the moist and savory filling for stuffed flank steak pinwheels. The flank steak gets marinated beforehand in a mix of soy sauce, honey, lemon juice and ground mustard, so every bite is packed with sweet and savory flavor.
Recipe by Ethel Klyasheff ~ Granite City, Illinois
-
Ingredients:
- 1 beef flank steak (about 1-1/2 pounds)
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons ground mustard
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest, optional
- 1 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
- medium onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup butter, cubed
- 1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Cut steak horizontally from a long side to within 1/2 in. of opposite side. Open steak so it lies flat; cover with waxed paper. Flatten to 1/4-in. thickness.
- In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, mustard, pepper and, if desired, lemon zest. Pour half of marinade into a large shallow dish; add beef and turn to coat; cover and refrigerate overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
- In a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in butter until tender. Remove from the heat; stir in parsley. Drain steak and discard marinade. Open steak; spoon filling over steak to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up tightly jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie with kitchen string. Place in a greased shallow roasting pan. Pour reserved marinade over steak.
- Cover and bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Uncover; baste with pan drippings. Bake 30 minutes longer or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°, medium, 140°, medium-well, 145°). Remove and keep warm. Meanwhile, transfer cooking juices to a saucepan; skim fat. Bring cooking juices to a boil. Mix cornstarch and broth until smooth. Stir into cooking juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Slice steak and serve with sauce.
