Spiral Steaks With Pesto, Olives, And Tomatoes


Serves: 8
Total Calories: 417

Ingredients

FOR THE PESTO:
1 cup loosely packed fresh basil
1 small clove garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon pine nuts
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

FOR THE FILLING:
1/2 cup black olives, pitted
1/2 cup sun-dried tomato (oil-packed)

2 beef flank steaks, about 1 1/2 lbs each
kosher salt

Directions:

TO MAKE THE PESTO: In a food processor finely chop the basil, garlic, pine nuts, salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl and whisk in the olive oil.

TO MAKE THE FILLING: In a food processor combine the olives and sun-dried tomatoes and process until smooth.

Trim the flank steaks of any excess fat and trim the edges to form a rectangle. Using a meat mallet or the flat side of a sauté pan, pound the steaks to an even thickness, about 7 inches by 9 inches each.

Coat both sides of the steaks with the pesto. Spread half the filling on each steak and roll up the long sides over the filling like a jelly roll. Cut each roll into four equal-sized spirals, securing each with a toothpick. Place on a platter, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 to 6 hours.

Allow the spirals to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Season with salt and grill, smooth curved side down, over Direct Medium heat until nicely browned on all smooth sides, 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove the toothpicks and serve immediately.
