PUERTO RICAN-STYLE STUFFED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• For the rice: Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the turmeric and cook, stirring, until toasted, about 30 seconds. Add the rice and stir to coat. Add 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a low simmer, cover and cook until all of the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the mayonnaise and garlic. Adjust the seasoning with salt and let cool completely. Set aside.
• Prepare a grill for direct and indirect heat: For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes, turn off one of the side burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.) If your grill has a thermometer, aim to keep the temperature at about 350 degrees F throughout grilling.
• For the peppers and plantains: Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium flameproof skillet over the direct-heat side of the grill until hot and shimmering. Add the peppers and cook until softened, about 5 minutes; set aside. Add the plantain halves cut-side down and cook, flipping once, until golden and caramelized, about 5 minutes per side. Let cool, then cut one of the plantain pieces in half lengthwise to make 3 strips total. Set aside.
• For the beans: Put the beans and 2 tablespoons of the barbecue sauce in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and squish the beans with your hands until broken down enough to hold together but not completely a paste. Set aside.
• For the flank steak: Set the flank steak on a cutting board with a short end facing you. Starting at one long side, slice the steak in half horizontally, leaving 2 inches at the opposite long side uncut so the pieces stay together. Open up the steak like a book so you have 1 big piece. Pound the steak with a meat mallet to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. Sprinkle both sides of the steak with the roasted garlic and herb seasoning.
• Position the steak vertically in front of you so the short ends are at the top and bottom of the cutting board. Pat the rice into an even layer all over the steak. Starting a third of the way in from the left side of the steak, lay down one plantain strip vertically on the steak. Moving right, line up 4 scallions next to it, followed by a third of the peppers and a third of the beans. Repeat 2 more times with the remaining ingredients, starting with a plantain strip and ending with the beans. Starting at one of the long ends, roll the steak around the filling like a jelly roll. Tie closed at 1-inch intervals around the circumference with kitchen twine. Tie 1 more piece of twine lengthwise around the meat to secure it. Coat the meat evenly with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the steak on the direct-heat side of the grill to brown all 4 sides, about 10 minutes total. Move the steak to the indirect-heat side of the grill, cover the grill and cook, turning occasionally and basting with the remaining 1/4 cup barbecue sauce during the last 5 minutes of grilling; cook, testing the temperature frequently, until the very center registers 115 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer for a steak that is well done on the outside and medium rare in the center, about 30 minutes more. Transfer the steak to a cutting board to rest for 15 minutes.
• Untie the steak and slice on a slight bias into 6 thick slices. Serve with more barbecue sauce on the side.

GRILLED STUFFED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine garlic, shallot, parsley, sage, and olive oil. Set aside. Lay out two long pieces of plastic wrap side by side and place flank steak on plastic wrap. Butterfly cut steak. (Lay flank stake out flat and slice in half horizontal, from side to side, stopping before you get to the edge. Open it up and your steak will suddenly be twice as the size). Ask your butcher or store butcher to do this to save you time! Place two more pieces of plastic wrap on top of steak. Pound flank steak into rough rectangle with a meat hammer or gently with a clean nail hammer so as to not pound a hole in it . Remove top plastic wrap. Spread garlic and herb oil over steak. Top with prosciutto. Place provolone on top of prosciutto, leaving a boarder around steak without cheese. Like cinnamon rolls, working with the wide end, roll up steak into a pinwheel. Cut 12 (8 inch) pieces of string. Tie up each end of steak roll. Then use the remaining string to tie up the steak into 1 inch pieces, working from outside edges to inside. Once steak is tied up, then roll log so that the seam is facing you. Place a skewer between each of the strings and on each end, making sure to skewer the edges to secure them. Slice the steak between the skewers and snip off the strings. Salt and pepper each side of the pinwheels. Cook on a preheated and oiled grill for approximately 4 - 5 minutes per side, depending on how done you want your steaks. You can also cook these on foil or a grilling mat. Once cooked, remove from grill, and let sit for 3 - 5 minutes. You can cover them with foil if you wish. Remove the skewers and devour!

• Put steak on 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap (each about 2 feet long) with a short side of steak nearest you. Holding a sharp knife parallel to work surface and beginning on a long side, butterfly steak by cutting it almost in half horizontally (not all the way through), then open it like a book.
• Turn steak so a long side is nearest you, then arrange spinach evenly over steak, leaving a 1-inch border along edge farthest from you. Top spinach with carrot pieces, arranging them parallel to long side and spacing them evenly, then sprinkle evenly with bread crumb mixture.
• Beginning with side nearest you and using plastic wrap as an aid, roll up steak, gently pressing on filling (do not roll too tightly or filling will slip out from ends), then tie steak crosswise with string at 3/4-inch intervals. Season with salt and pepper.
• To cook steak using a charcoal grill:
• Open vents on bottom of grill and on lid. Light a heaping chimneyful of charcoal and pour it evenly over 1 side of bottom rack (you will have a double or triple layer of charcoal).

STUFFED FLANK STEAK IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Place flank steak in the freezer for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet. Add mushrooms, celery, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic; saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and place in a large bowl.
• Pat roasted red peppers dry. Chop and add to the vegetable mixture. Add bread crumbs, parsley, 2 tablespoons olive oil, capers, salt, pepper flakes, and black pepper. Mix to combine.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Remove steak from the freezer and season with salt and pepper. Turn the long side of the steak towards you and place on a flat work surface. Slice horizontally through the middle to within 1/2 inch of the opposite edge, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book.
• Leaving a 1-inch border around the edges, layer prosciutto and provolone cheese over the entire steak. Top with bread crumb mixture, patting down to adhere. Roll steak up tightly starting at the small end. Use kitchen twine to tie steak in 1-inch increments taking care to tie tightly at both ends. Season with more salt and pepper and brush with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Place steak carefully on a broiler pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for medium-rare, 160 degrees F (71 degrees C) for medium, or 170 degrees F (77 degrees C) for well done, 35 to 40 minutes.

STUFFED MEXICAN FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the crumbled corn bread in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
• Place the flank steak on a flat surface. Hold a long, sharp carving knife parallel to the surface and cut the steak lengthwise in half to make two long rectangles of equal thickness. This may be done by the butcher. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper.
• Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a skillet and add half of the onions, half of the celery, half of the green peppers and half of the garlic. Cook, stirring, until the mixture is wilted. Let cool briefly. Add this to the corn bread. Add salt, pepper and the eggs.
• Remove and discard the stems of the jalapeno peppers. Chop the peppers and add them to the bowl. Add the parsley and blend well with the fingers.
• Spoon equal portions of the cornbread mixture onto each half of the meat. Carefully roll the meat jellyroll-style, starting at the narrower end of each portion of the meat. It will be almost impossible to enclose the filling without a portion of it falling out. This is a minor problem. Continue to roll and enclose each filling as neatly as possible. Tie the meat with string in several places to secure it.
• Heat the remaining three tablespoons of oil in a skillet and add the stuffed meat rolls. Brown the meat as neatly as possible on all sides, turning it carefully. Once more, a portion of the filling will fall into the skillet, which is to be expected.
• When the meat is browned, scatter the remaining onions, celery, green peppers and garlic around the rolls. Sprinkle the vegetables with the chili powder, cumin and oregano. Stir to blend and add the crushed tomatoes, broth, salt and pepper. Stir.
• Bring to the boil, cover and place in the oven. Bake about one hour. Transfer the meat to a serving dish and remove the strings. Pour the sauce into a saucepan and skim off the excess fat. Bring to the boil.
• Cut the meat into rounds and serve hot with the sauce. Serve with Mexican table sauce on the side, if desired.
