Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. In a mixing bowl, combine spinach, ricotta, mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  4. Spoon the filling into the flank steak pocket, spreading evenly without overstuffing.
  5. Roll the steak tightly and secure it with kitchen twine at both ends and the middle.
  6. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the rolled flank steak for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  7. Transfer the skillet with the steak to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  8. Let the steak rest for about 10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch rounds.
