Ingredients

• 1 flank steak, 2 pounds
• Fresh spinach, packed
• 4-5 slices prosciutto
• Shredded mozzarella cheese ( sub with Monterey Jack or feta)
• Italian parsley (flatleaf)
• Fresh garlic
• Smoked paprika
• Zest of 1 lime
• Juice of 1 lime
• Extra-virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt
• Black pepper
• Kitchen twine

How to Make Stuffed Flank Steak

• Make the chimichurri: Combine the chopped parsley, minced garlic, smoked paprika, lime zest, and juice with salt and black pepper to taste, along with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, to create a chimichurri sauce. Cover and refrigerate.
• Preheat grill: Prepare your grill for 350°F two-zone cooking by placing hot coals on one side of the grill. Alternatively, if using a 3-burner gas grill, keep the center burner off to create an indirect cooking space. For the pellet grill, preheat to 350°F, and use pecan or fruitwood pellets for this recipe.
• Prep the flank steak: Butterfly the steak with a sharp knife and flatten the it to an even thickness between 1/2-3/4-inch using a meat mallet. Season the inside with salt and black pepper.
• Spread 1/4 cup of chimichurri sauce evenly over the seasoning. Reserve the remaining sauce to use as a topping.
• Add filling: Next, layer the spinach on top, followed by the prosciutto, and finally the shredded mozzarella.
• Roll and secure: Carefully roll the roast and secure it with kitchen twine. Brush the outside with a little olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
• Grill it: Place the rolled flank steak on the direct (hot) side of the grill, and give it a quick sear on all sides, about 4 minutes total. Move it to the indirect (cool) side of the grill, close the lid, and finish cooking.
• Doneness: Once the roast reaches an internal temperature between 140°F and 145°F (medium) it’s done.

Serving and Storing Stuffed Flank Steak

• Rest it: Remove the stuffed flank steak from the grill and place it on a clean cutting board. Rest it for 10 minutes.
• Slice and serve: Carefully cut off the twine with kitchen shears and slice the steak into individual pinwheels. Serve it plated with the remaining chimichurri sauce.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Freeze in vacuum-sealed bags for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven, on the stovetop in a skillet, or in an air fryer until hot throughout. The chimichurri can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
