How to Make It
1. Step
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
2. Step
Heat the oil in an oven-proof skillet. Toss in the bell peppers, onions, salt, pepper, and garlic, and sauté until the veggies have softened, about 10 minutes.
3. Step
Season the flank steak on both sides with a good pinch of salt and black pepper.
4. Step
Sprinkle on the spinach in an even layer and top with the sautéed peppers.
5. Step
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the veggies and tightly wrap the steak into a roll.
6. Step
Skewer the steak with toothpicks about 1½ inches (4 cm) apart so that the steak will hold its shape.
7. Step
Slice between the toothpicks to create individual steak rolls.
8. Step
Heat a few more tablespoons of oil in the skillet. When the oil has begun to smoke slightly, sear the steak rolls until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
9. Step
NOTE: To bake the entire steak roll at one time, simply sear each steak roll in a large skillet and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once each roll has been seared and transferred to the baking sheet, proceed with steps 10-12.
10. Step
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until it has reached desired level of doneness.
11. Step
Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before removing toothpicks.
