INVOLTINI OF SIRLOIN STEAK

Here’s a sirloin steak flattened and stuffed using the same technique as the classic German beef roulade, but which is adapted for the barbecue.

INGREDIENTS
1½ lb   750 g   Top Sirloin Grilling Steak or Rouladen-cut Inside Round Marinating Steak
    Salt & pepper to taste
4 oz   115 g   peppered goat cheese (e.g. chevre or feta with black pepper)
2 tsp   10 mL   dried oregano, crumbled
2 cups   500 mL   fresh spinach leaves
12   12   sun-dried tomato pieces (oil-packed)
2 tbsp   30 mL   balsamic vinegar
    Olive oil

PREPARATION TIME: 20 minutes
COOKING TIME: 10 minutes

DIRECTIONS
If using sirloin steak, with mallet, pound steak to 1/8 inch (0.25 cm) thickness (this step is not necessary if using rouladen-cut steaks). Season beef with salt and pepper. Spread goat cheese to within ¼ inch (0.5 cm) of each steak’s edge; sprinkle with oregano. Place half of the spinach leaves over cheese. Add sun-dried tomatoes and cover completely with remaining spinach. Starting with long edge, roll up each steak like a jelly roll. Tie tightly in several places with butcher’s twine or hold together with skewers (presoak wooden skewers for 1 hour). Brush outside of each beef roll with balsamic vinegar and olive oil; season with salt and pepper.

Place beef on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and cook, turning once, for approximately 3-5 minutes per side (until instant-read thermometer inserted into center of each roll reads 155°F/68°C). Remove from heat; place seam-side-down on cutting board and tent with foil for 5 minutes. Remove string or skewers and cut diagonally into 1-inch (2.5-cm) slices. Serve the involtini with new potatoes and grilled vegetables tossed in a balsamic vinaigrette.
