My local grocery store sells this pre-made at the butcher case. I thought I'd see if I could come up with a tastier version!

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lb flank steak, (2 1-pound steaks)
10 oz package frozen, chopped spinach
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3/4 c soft breadcrumbs
1/2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp rubbed sage
1/4 tsp salt
1 dash(es) black pepper
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
8 oz can tomato sauce
1/2 c burgundy wine
1/2 c onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 c water
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • 1. Pound stead to 1/4 inch thickness, using a meat mallet or a rolling pin. Set aside.
  • 2. Cook the spinach according to the package directions. Drain well. Combine spinach, egg, and the next 5 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir well. Spread half of the spinach mixture over each flank steak to within 1 inch of the sides. Roll up the steaks , starting with the short sides. Tie with heavy kitchen string at 2-inch intervals.
  • 3. Brown the steaks in hot oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the steaks in an ungreased 11 x 7 x 1 1/2 inch baking dish.
  • 4. Combine the tomato sauce, wine, onion, and garlic; pour over the steaks. Cover and bake at 350° for 1 1/2 hours. Remove the steaks to a serving platter, reserving the tomato sauce mix. Set aside and keep warm.
  • 5. Add enough water to the tomato mixture to measure 1 3/4 cups. Place tomato sauce mixture in a small saucepan. Combine 1/4 cup water and flour, stirring until smooth. Stir the flour mixture into the tomato sauce mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened and bubbly.
  • 6. To serve, slice the steak diagonally across the grain into 1 inch slices. Serve with the tomato gravy.

This dish was a little too rich for my taste. The steak was cooked well, but the spinach and cheese filling was a bit overpowering.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. I can have it on the table in less than 30 minutes. It's also a great way to use up leftover steak.

This recipe was a disaster! The steak was tough and overcooked, and the sauce was bland. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making this again.

Not a fan of the spinach and cheese filling, but the steak itself was cooked well.

Just made this for dinner, and it turned out great! I used a top sirloin steak instead of flank, and it was still very tender. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and the spinach and Parmesan added a nice touch. Will definitely be making this again.
