Preparation
- Remove the flank steak from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to reach room temperature, ensuring even cooking throughout.
- Meanwhile, place the steak between two sheets of parchment paper and use a meat mallet to pound it to a thickness of about 1/3 to 1/2 inch.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) while you prepare the seasoning and stuffing.
- In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, garlic salt, coarse sea salt, fresh cracked pepper, dried oregano, dried basil, dried rosemary, and dried thyme.
- Generously season both sides of the flank steak with this flavorful dry rub.
- In another mixing bowl, combine the grated garlic, diced red pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, chopped fresh basil, fresh spinach, egg yolk, plain bread crumbs, and shredded mozzarella.
- Spread the stuffing mixture evenly across the flank steak, leaving about an inch of space from the edges.
- Begin from one end and tightly roll the steak with the grain, forming a neat cylinder.
- Secure it with cooking twine or kitchen string at several points.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Carefully place the rolled steak in the pan and drizzle any remaining oil on top.
- Sear the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Transfer the skillet with the seared steak into the preheated oven.
- Roast for approximately 25 minutes until the steak reaches a medium doneness.
- Check the internal temperature aiming for 137°F to 140°F.
- Once cooked, remove the stuffed steak from the oven and allow it to rest for about 10 minutes.
- Slice the steak into rounds and serve with roasted asparagus.
