It was my first time butterflying a flank steak myself, as I usually ask the butcher to trim the fat and butterfly it for me.

I wanted to butterfly the steak it myself this time so that I could share with you my experience.

I butterflied it without much trouble by following this easy tutorial video.

Mine did not turn out entirely perfect, but it still worked out fine in the recipe. If you can't get a butcher to do it, then don't worry, you can do it yourself, and you don't have it get it perfect looking for it to work.

Ingredients

1.5 lb Flank Steak trimmed & butterflied
¼ teaspoon Sea Salt
⅛ teaspoon Black Pepper
1 ½ tablespoon Butter
3 cloves Garlic Minced
2 cups Fresh Baby Spinach torn
5 ounces Full Fat Cream Cheese
¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Dried Parsley or fresh
½ teaspoon Onion Powder
1 ½ tablespoon Avocado Oil or olive oil

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375℉ (190℃). Butterfly Steak (an easy instructional video on how to butterfly a flank steak) by slicing horizontally across and then pound or tenderize steak until flat but not too thin. Set aside.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and saute for a couple of minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, and onion powder. Stir until creamy and combined.
Season flat steak with salt and pepper.
Spread the cream cheese mixture on the steak, then layer the spinach.
Roll up steak and tie with kitchen twine about 1 ½ inches apart.
Using a sharp knife, slice roll halfway between kitchen twine ties to make pinwheel-shaped rolls.
Heat a large heavy-duty skillet to medium-high heat (if using the same skillet, then wipe out excess cream cheese from the pan with a paper towel before heating), and add the avocado oil to the pan.
Add the steak rolls and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
Transfer steak rolls to a baking dish, or place the oven-safe skillet in the oven and bake for 12 to15 minutes depending on the thickness of the steak rolls, or until meat reaches about 140℉ to 160℉ (60℃ to 70℃) on a meat thermometer.
Remove from oven and cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove twine, serve & enjoy.
