Olive Stuffed Flank Steak With Cherry Tomato Confit Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN INSPIRED STUFFED AND ROLLED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Combine all the stuffing ingredients in a food processor and process until they form a smooth paste, about 45 to 60 seconds.
• Prepare the flank steak by placing between plastic and pounding to a thickness of 1/3 inch; score on one side in a criss-cross pattern.
• Turn steak over and season well with salt and pepper.
• Smooth all but 1 tablespoon of the stuffing over the entire steak; reserved stuffing will be used later in a sauce.
• Roll steak up and tie with kitchen twine in about 3 places.
• Place the steak, uncovered, in the refrigerator for at least two hours up to overnight (you want the outside to dry a bit and the inside to marinate).
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and bring the steak to room temperature.
• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat; season steak on all sides generously with salt and pepper and sear well, in a little oil, on all sides.
• Meanwhile combine reserved stuffing, water, mustard, garlic, rosemary, and oils in a roasting pan or baking dish; place a rack for the meat on top.
• Place meat on rack, brush with pan juices, and roast to an internal temperature of 120 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
• Let rest about 15 minutes, then slice into 1/4 inch slices; drizzle with pan sauce and more extra virgin olive oil if desired.

CONFIT OLIVE OIL STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Pat filet dry. Season evenly with salt.
• Place steak into a small glass dish, about the size of the steak. Press minced garlic on top of the steak and lay thyme sprigs on top. Pour enough olive oil on top so the steak is immersed in oil.
• Cook steak in the preheated oven until the internal temperature is 135 degrees F (57 degrees C), about 40 minutes.
• Remove steak from oven and blot dry.
• Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into the skillet and sear steak in the hot oil for 30 to 40 seconds on each side, including the sides. Slice and serve immediately.
