Recipe by Allison Fishman Peppery arugula and provolone add an unexpected bite to typical flank steak in these easy roll-ups.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb. flank steak
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 1 package baby arugula
  • 1/4 lb. very thinly sliced deli provolone
  • kosher salt
  • Pepper
  • 3 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 pt. cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 small red onion
  • 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat grill to medium-high. Butterfly the steak: Cut it in half horizontally (don't cut all the way through) and open it like a book.
  2. Rub the garlic over the inside of the steak. Scatter 1 heaping cup of arugula over the steak, then lay the cheese on top. Roll up the steak and tie with kitchen twine. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  3. Grill the steak, covered, turning occasionally and brushing with the vinegar, 15 to 18 minutes for medium-rare. Let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the tomatoes and onion with the lemon juice, oil, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Toss with the remaining arugula; serve with the steak.
