Ingredients

• 1 pound Lean beef flank steak
• 2 cups Spinach leaves
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 cup Low-fat feta cheese
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 teaspoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
• 0.25 cup Fresh basil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lay the flank steak on a clean surface. Carefully use a meat mallet to pound the steak evenly until it is about 0.5 inches thick.

Step 3

Season the steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 4

In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Sauté the spinach for about 2 minutes until wilted. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add another teaspoon of olive oil and sauté the garlic and diced red bell pepper for about 3 minutes until soft.

Step 6

Layer the cooked spinach evenly over the steak, followed by the sautéed garlic and bell pepper.

Step 7

Sprinkle the low-fat feta cheese over the top, ensuring an even distribution.

Step 8

Roll the steak tightly from one short end to the other to form a log. Secure with kitchen twine at 1-inch intervals.

Step 9

Place the rolled steak on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 10

Brush the outside with balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with fresh basil.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes for medium-rare doneness (cook longer if desired).

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick pinwheels.

Step 13

Serve the pinwheels warm as a delicious main course or appetizer.
