3/4 teaspoon (divided)
white pepper
1/4 teaspoon (to taste)
Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons (divided)
vegetable oil
2 tablespoons (for sautéing)
onion
1 1/3 cups (chopped, divided)
mushroom pieces
1 (4 ounce) can or 1/2 cup fresh (drained and chopped)
parsley
1/2 cup (chopped)
chives
2 tablespoons (chopped)
tomato paste
1 tablespoon (to enhance flavor)
dry breadcrumbs
1/2 cup
paprika
1 teaspoon
bacon
3 strips (chopped)
beef broth
1 cup (hot, or more for desired consistency)
catsup
2 tablespoons
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2
Lightly season both sides of the flank steak with salt and white pepper. Spread Dijon mustard evenly over one side of the steak.
3
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until softened and starting to brown.
4
Stir in the mushroom pieces and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through and excess moisture has evaporated.
5
Add the chopped parsley, chives, tomato paste, and dry breadcrumbs to the mixture. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and stir until well combined.
6
Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the mustard-coated side of the flank steak. Roll the steak tightly from one end to the other, like a jelly roll, and secure it tightly with kitchen twine.
7
In a Dutch oven, sauté the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy and rendered. Remove excess grease, leaving just enough to brown the meat.
8
Add the flank steak roll to the Dutch oven and brown it on all sides, about 10 minutes in total.
9
Once browned, add the finely chopped onion to the pot and sauté for an additional 5 minutes until translucent.
10
Pour the hot beef broth into the pot, cover it, and let it simmer gently for 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld and the meat to become tender.
11
When finished, carefully transfer the meat roll to a preheated serving platter. Season the pan juices with additional mustard, salt, and pepper to taste, then stir in ketchup for a flavorful gravy.
12
Slice the stuffed flank steak into thick pieces and serve with the savory gravy on the side.
