Braciola Ingredients

1 pound Beef flank steak

3 to taste Garlic cloves, minced

1 cup Fresh parsley, chopped

1 cup Fresh basil, chopped

1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese

4 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup Red wine

Method

Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Beef

Lay the flank steak flat on a cutting board. Use a meat mallet to pound it to about 1/2 inch thickness.

Season and Fill

Sprinkle the steak with salt and pepper. In a bowl, mix together the minced garlic, parsley, basil, and Parmesan cheese. Spread this mixture evenly over the steak.

Roll the Steak

Starting from one end, carefully roll the steak up tightly to form a log. Secure it with toothpicks or tie it with kitchen twine.

Sear the Braciola

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the rolled braciola and sear on all sides until browned, about 8-10 minutes.

Add Sauce Ingredients

Pour in the red wine and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.

Cook Slowly

Cover and let it cook on low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender.

Serve

Remove the toothpicks or twine, slice into rounds, and serve with the sauce spooned over the top.
