flavorful steak pinwheels, filled with crispy bacon, fresh spinach, and savory seasonings, for a delicious and impressive meal.
Gather Ingredients You’ll need flank steak, bacon, fresh spinach, garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, and toothpicks. These ingredients make a delicious, savory filling for the steak.
Prepare the Steak Lay out the flank steak on a cutting board. Use a meat mallet to pound the steak to an even thickness for easy rolling.
Cook the Bacon Fry the bacon in a skillet until crispy. Once cooked, remove and let it drain on paper towels. Save the bacon fat for added flavor.
Sauté Spinach In the same skillet with the bacon fat, sauté fresh spinach and minced garlic until the spinach wilts. This adds a delicious, garlicky flavor.
Assemble the Pinwheels Spread the cooked spinach and crumbled bacon evenly over the steak. Roll the steak tightly, securing with toothpicks at intervals.
Season and Sear Season the outside of the rolled steak with salt and pepper. Sear it in a hot skillet with olive oil until browned on all sides.
Bake to Perfection Transfer the seared steak to a preheated oven. Bake until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness for a juicy, flavorful pinwheel.
Slice and Serve Remove toothpicks and slice the steak into pinwheels.
Serve hot and enjoy the delicious combination of tender steak, crispy bacon, and savory spinach!
