Balsamic Steak Rolls Recipe.
Quick, colorful, and all wrapped up for your convenience, these juicy steak rolls are packed with vegetables and finished off with a tangy-sweet balsamic glaze. Adding basil and oregano without a pile of tomatoes gives them a very fresh Italian flavor. Pile a few of them on your plate for dinner, or pull out a big platter for a party food or an appetizer. They’re a great size for kids, and having a bunch of smaller rolls makes it easy to accommodate everyone’s appetite.

Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 – 2 lb. skirt steak, sliced into thin strips;
- 1 carrot, matchstick cut;
- 1 bell pepper, matchstick cut;
- 1/2 zucchini, matchstick cut;
- 5 green onions, matchstick cut;
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced;
- 1/2 tsp. dried oregano;
- 1/2 tsp. dried basil;
- Cooking fat;
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;
Ingredients for the balsamic glaze sauce
- 1 tbsp. ghee;
- 2 tbsp. shallots, finely chopped;
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar;
- 1 tbsp. honey;
- 1/4 cup beef stock;
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;
Instructions
- Season the steak slices with sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste and set aside.
- Melt the ghee in a skillet placed over a medium heat.
- Add the shallots and cook until soft, about 3 minutes.
- Add the balsamic vinegar, honey, beef stock, and season again with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half. Transfer to a bowl.
- In the same skillet, add some cooking fat and cook the garlic for 1 or 2 minutes; then add all the remaining vegetables and cook until soft but still a little crunchy, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Season with oregano, basil, sea salt and pepper, and transfer to a bowl.
- Arrange a small pile of vegetables in the center of each slice of beef. Tightly roll the meat around the filling, and secure with a toothpick.
- Return the beef rolls to the skillet, and cook over a medium-high heat on all sides until the meat is cooked through.
- Remove the toothpicks, spoon some of the balsamic sauce over the rolls, and serve.
