Mozzarella Filled Steak Rolls

8 ingredients
6 steps

Ingredients

  • 12 minute steaks, about 3oz each, thinly cut (or 6 small sirloin steaks, about 5oz each)
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 ounces basil, leaves only
  • 10 ounces mozzarella cheese, torn
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 10 ounces roasted red peppers packed in oil, plus 1 tbsp of their oil
  • 2 ounces olives (black or green)
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat oven to 450°F
  2. 2
    Season steaks, place a few basil leaves on each and split the mozzarella between them.
  3. 3
    Bring the sides of the steaks together to make an open parcel, securing the edges with a toothpick. If making up to a day ahead, cover and chill.
  4. 4
    Heat a heavy-based roasting tin on a high heat, add the oil and brown the beef on all sides - this should take about 1 min in total and the meat will still be rare in the middle.
  5. 5
    Add the peppers, their oil and the olives to the tin, pour over the vinegar, then roast for 2-3 mins for medium rare, longer for well done.
  6. 6
    Cover with foil and leave to rest for up to 5 minutes Scatter over remaining basil before serving.
