Italian Stuffed Beef Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Pound the steak very thin and cut into 4 pieces.
• Place a slice of mozzarella on each piece, then top with parmesan, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Roll each piece up tightly and secure with a string.
• Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet and brown the rolls evenly on each side.
• Drop them in your favorite pasta sauce and allow them to simmer for 2 hours or until tender and cooked through. (The meat will add a wonderful flavor to your sauce!).
• Remove the strings and serve.
• (Alternative: Assemble and brown the beef rolls the night before and store them in the fridge. Then drop the rolls and the sauce in your crockpot and cook on low for 8 hours the next day).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Cut steak into 6 serving-sized pieces; pound with a meat mallet to 1/4-in. thickness. In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup roasted peppers, spinach, cream cheese, artichokes and basil; spread over steaks. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Place seam side down in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish; sprinkle with salt and pepper., Bake until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 30-35 minutes. , Meanwhile, place pasta sauce and remaining roasted peppers in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a large saucepan; stir in tomato paste. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, 15-20 minutes. Let steaks stand 5 minutes before cutting into 1-in.-thick slices. Serve with sauce.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the bread crumbs, pecorino Romano, ½ cup (20 g) chopped basil, provolone, parsley, 5 minced cloves of garlic, salt, pepper, and the olive oil. Stir and set aside.
• Lay the flank steak on a cutting board. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Cover the the meat with a sheet of parchment paper. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the steak until it's ¼ inch (6 mm) thick.
• Remove the parchment and sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the steak.
• Starting from the bottom, roll the meat into a log. Using butcher's twine, tie up the roll so it holds its shape while cooking. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the steak roll and, without moving it, cook until a dark brown crust forms on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the roll and repeat until all sides and the ends have been seared. Remove the roll from the pan and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Add the butter, carrot, onion, celery, remaining 3 cloves of garlic, salt, and pepper to the pan and cook until caramelized, about 5 minutes.
• Add the white wine and stir to loosen any brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Cook until the wine reduces and the pan is slightly dry again.
• Add the tomatoes, bay leaves, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
• Return the beef roll to the pot. Cover and bake for 1 hour, flipping the roll halfway through (if the sauce is drying up too much, add more crushed tomatoes or water), until the beef is tender.
• Slice the braciole and arrange on a serving platter with the sauce. Serve the braciole with orecchiette or polenta. Garnish with grated pecorino Romano and fresh basil.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Pound meat to tenderize. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cut into 3-in. to 4-in. squares. Combine the bread crumbs, cheese, celery and herbs. Place a heaping spoonful of crumb mixture on each meat square and roll up. Secure with string or a toothpick. Roll meat in remaining crumb mixture. , In a large skillet, brown roll-ups in oil on all sides. Pour spaghetti sauce over all; cover and simmer 1-1/2 hours or until meat is tender. Serve with pasta.

Steps:

• Place beef between two pieces of plastic wrap. Pound gently with a meat pounder or mallet to 1/4-1/8 inch thickness.
• Remove and discard plastic wrap. Place one slice of the prosciutto on each beef slice. Sprinkle beef slices with the finely chopped garlic, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Roll each of the beef slices into a tight roll and secure with a toothpick.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add the braciole and crushed garlic. Cook, turning the meat occasionally, until it is browned on all sides and the garlic is golden. Add the red wine and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove and discard the crushed garlic cloves.
• Stir in the tomato puree and basil.
• Cover and cook on low heat, turning the meat occasionally, until it is tender when pierced with a fork, about 2 hours. Add a little water if the sauce becomes to thick.
• If you want to serve it the Italian way: Serve the sauce over the hot, cooked ziti as a first course, followed by the braciole. Don't forget to remove the toothpick from the braciole.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Put olive oil on the bottom of a medium-sized baking dish. Remove casings from sausage.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook cabbage leaves until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain.
• While the cabbage is cooking, remove casings from sausage. Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it into pieces as it cooks, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• At the same time, combine marinara sauce and tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until warm, about 3 minutes; set aside.
• Mix cooked rice, sausage, and 1/2 cup sauce with basil and oregano. Spread filling onto cabbage leaves and roll up like small burritos. The amount of filling in each will vary depending on how big your cabbage leaves are. Place cabbage rolls close together in the prepared dish and spoon remaining sauce over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Garnish with more basil and oregano.
