Pepper Coated Stuffed Flank Steak

Directions

Pierce both sides of steak with fork tines.

To make pockets for stuffing, with a sharp pointed knife make a crosswise slit in center of the steak, without cutting through to the bottom, leaving ½ inch uncut on each side.

Make a lengthwise pocket on each side by cutting through the center of the meat to within 1 inch of the sides.

Combine onion with water; set aside for 10 minutes to soften.

In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoon of the oil.

Add onion; sauté until golden, about 1 minute.

Add mushrooms and ¾ teaspoon of the salt; sauté until all of the liquid has evaporated, about 8 minutes.

Add bread crumbs and egg; mix well and cool.

Spoon mushroom mixture into pockets of steak with remaining 2 tablespoon oil.

Sprinkle steak on both sides with black pepper and remaining ½ teaspoon salt.

Cook over coals 4 minutes on each side for medium rare.2
