Ingredients

  • 1 (2-pound) flank steak, pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup red wine
  • 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced and divided
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil), drained

Directions

  1. 1

    Add the olive oil, soy sauce, red wine, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, 1 minced garlic clove, Italian seasoning, and black pepper to a bowl. Whisk to combine and create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Using a sharp knife, make shallow diagonal cuts about 1 inch apart across the surface of the flank steak. Place the steak in a large resealable bag and pour in the marinade. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.

  3. 3

    Preheat the oven to 350°Fahrenheit. Remove the steak from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Discard the remaining marinade.

  4. 4

    On a cutting board, sprinkle the salt over 1 minced garlic clove. Using the flat side of a knife, mash the garlic and salt together to form a paste. Spread the garlic paste evenly over the top side of the flank steak.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the chopped onion and bread crumbs over the garlic paste. Arrange the fresh spinach leaves on top, followed by the shredded Swiss cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

  6. 6

    Starting at one of the short ends, carefully roll up the flank steak, enclosing the filling. Secure the roll with kitchen twine or toothpicks at 1-inch intervals. Place the rolled steak seam-side down in a baking dish.

  7. 7

    Bake the steak pinwheels uncovered in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour. A meat thermometer inserted into the center of the roll should read at least 145°Fahrenheit.

  8. 8

    Remove the pinwheels from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the filling to set. Slice the roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels.

  9. 9

    Serve the steak pinwheels hot and enjoy your flavorful, cheesy creation!
