Grilled Steak Pinwheels

Dinner

I've been serving this recipe to family and friends for 20 years and very seldom do I have any leftovers. We try to keep the house cool, so we grill out often.

Average Rating: 4

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. Grill: 10 min.
YIELD: 8 servings.

Ingredients

2 beef flank steaks (1 pound each), trimmed
1/2 pound bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1 cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
1 cup finely chopped green onions
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil or 4 teaspoons dried basil
2 tablespoons minced chives

Instructions

1. Flatten steaks to 1/4-in. In a large bowl, combine the bacon, mushrooms, onions, basil and chives; spread evenly over steaks.
2. Roll the meat up and secure with skewers or toothpicks. Cut each roll into 1/2- to 3/4-in. slices and secure with a toothpick.
3. Grill over medium-hot heat for 4-6 minutes on each side until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove toothpicks.
