Ingredients
Scale
For the Pinwheels:
- 2 pounds flank steak (butterflied)
- 9 slices Emmental cheese
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak: Lay the butterflied steak flat on a clean cutting board. Season evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
- Assemble the Pinwheels: Layer the Emmental cheese slices over the steak, then spread the spinach evenly on top. Starting from one long end, tightly roll the steak into a log, tucking in the filling as needed.
- Secure and Season: Use skewers or kitchen twine to secure the roll every 1–2 inches. Brush the outside with olive oil, then sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper.
- Cut and Prep for Grilling: Cut the rolled steak between each skewer or tied section to form individual pinwheels. If any feel loose, tie with extra kitchen twine to hold their shape. Do this about 20 minutes before grilling.
- Preheat the Grill: For charcoal grills, arrange coals to one side for indirect heat. For gas grills, set all burners to high heat (about 400°F (200°C)).
- Grill the Pinwheels: Grill each pinwheel for 4–5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve: Serve with a drizzle of balsamic glaze or chimichurri for a gourmet touch!
