I used a sturdy 10-inch cast-iron skillet that is oven safe, so I could prepare this gorgeous meal using only one skillet.
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.
I decided to fill the steak rolls with sautéed garlic, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, spices, and fresh spinach because I've used that filling in stuffed mushroom appetizers before, and oh my, was it ever yummy!

If my rolls stick to the pan during searing am I doing something wrong?
Stacey
Anne, that can happen sometimes even if you oil the pan well. I just use a metal turner spatula to unstick them when that happens.
Jane
This sounds yummy! Can I assemble ahead and freeze before cooking? With just the 2 of us I would like to make enough for 2 meals.
Stacey
Hi Jane, great question. I would think you could freeze them assembled and then defrost them before cooking.
