This is my first attempt to make & cook a rolled flank steak.
Having purchased a one pound package flank steak.
Then combining 3 recipes...
and adding my own touch I put together a quick and easy stove top version.
Years ago, when my oven stopped working,I had cooked T-Bones on top the stove and they turned out great.
So why not try it with a stuffed flank steak. With out a hot oven.
Here is the resulting picture,
with my recipe, and 2 old kitchen tips for you to enjoy.
This recipe can be doubled for a family size. 5/17/12

    Using both of your hands tightly roll the meat into a long log.
    Tie with kitchen twine at 2-2/12 inch intervals.

    TIP:******..... in the olden days, we used to keep our twine in a 1/2 of a coconut shell, with a hole punched out to put the ball of twine thru. and hung on the kitchen wall. always ready!

    Slice between the twine at about 2 inch intervals. So the twine is in the middle of you'r cut rolls.
    Season again with salt & pepper.
    In a skillet with a little olive oil, lightly brown the chopped garlic. Remove the garlic.
    Add the rolls to the skillet and sear over medium heat 2-3 minutes each side. Turn heat to med-low.
    Cover and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes on each side. Or done to your liking.
    After you remove the meat, you can add a little water, and use to make a delishes gravy,for some mashed potatoes...maybe???
