Flank Steak Florentine image

How can such few ingredients yield something so incredibly delicious? My husband always brings me a local cookbook from his travels; this one was from a recent trip to Atlanta that I changed up a little bit.

Categories     Steak

Time 1h30m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 -1 1/2 lb flank steak (can use skirt steak)
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
8 -10 ounces frozen spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
garlic powder
salt
pepper
onion powder
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water
8 ounces beef stock
1/2 cup red wine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Lay steak out flat on the cutting board and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Spread entire block of cream cheese on one side of steak (really pile it on there!); sprinkle cream cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Sprinkle cream cheese side with spinach, then fold other half of steak over the side with cream cheese.
  • Place on baking sheet, then pour beef stock and red wine over the top. Bake for 60 minutes, adding additional beef stock as needed.
  • When done, remove from oven and place steak on cutting board to rest. Pour drippings into pan and whisk in mixture of water and corn starch, then bring to boil and cook to desired thickness.
  • Serve slices of steak with gravy (there is no good way to cut this by the way!).
