Mozzarella Filled Steak Rolls

A delicious, stress-free way to cook steak for a crowd.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 12  minute steaks, about 3oz each, thinly cut (or 6 small sirloin steaks, about 5oz each)
•  salt and pepper
• 2  ounces basil, leaves only
• 10  ounces mozzarella cheese, torn
• 1  tablespoon  oil
• 10  ounces  roasted red peppers packed in oil, plus 1 tbsp of their oil
• 2  ounces  olives (black or green)
• 1  tablespoon  balsamic vinegar

Directions

1. Heat oven to 450°F
2. Season steaks, place a few basil leaves on each and split the mozzarella between them.
3. Bring the sides of the steaks together to make an open parcel, securing the edges with a toothpick. If making up to a day ahead, cover and chill.
4. Heat a heavy-based roasting tin on a high heat, add the oil and brown the beef on all sides - this should take about 1 min in total and the meat will still be rare in the middle.
5. Add the peppers, their oil and the olives to the tin, pour over the vinegar, then roast for 2-3 mins for medium rare, longer for well done.
6. Cover with foil and leave to rest for up to 5 minutes Scatter over remaining basil before serving.
