Step-by-Step Instructions for Steak Pinwheels
  1. Start by laying the flank steak flat on a clean cutting board. Pound the meat to about 1/4 inch thick and season with salt and black pepper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, garlic powder, and shredded cheese. Fold in fresh spinach until evenly mixed.
  3. Spread the cheese and spinach mixture evenly across the flank steak, leaving a half-inch border. Roll the steak tightly from the long side and secure it.
  4. Slice the steak log into 1-inch thick pinwheels and preheat your oven to 375°F.
  5. Arrange the sliced pinwheels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-18 minutes.
  6. Once baked, let the pinwheels rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with herbs and drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
