Instructions
-
To butterfly the steak, orient it first so that the meat grain is running up and down in front. Place hand on top of the meat. Using a long, sharp knife, make a long, horizontal cut on the long side of the steak, cutting the meat in half, and going almost all the way across, leaving 1-inch at the edge uncut.
-
Open the flaps of the steak.
-
Assemble the marinade and marinate the steak for 2 hours. Make sure to coat the inside of the butterflied flank steak with the marinade as well.
-
Cut the bell peppers in half and remove the stems and seed pods. Rub the outside of the bell pepper halves with olive oil and place on a lined baking sheet, cut side down, under a broiler.
-
Broil the halved red bell peppers until peel is black.
-
Remove from the oven, place in a bowl and cover with a plate. After about 5 minutes, remove and discard the blackened peel.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove steak from marinade, reserve the marinade.
-
Layer the steak with prosciutto slices, roasted red bell pepper, parsley, and basil leaves, leaving at least an inch bare at the ends. Sprinkle with Parmesan and pepper.
-
Starting with one of the long ends, roll meat up like a jellyroll; grain of steak should run length of roll. Tie in 2 to 3 inch intervals with kitchen string. Place in a shallow baking dish and spread any remaining marinade over the top.
-
Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes.
-
Let rest 15 minutes.
-
Cut into ½-inch to 1-inch thick slices, garnish with watercress or baby arugula.
-
Serve and enjoy!
