Vegetable-Stuffed Flank Steak

Ingredients

• 1 pound beef flank steak, fat trimmed
• 1 cup fat-free Italian salad dressing
• Vegetable Stuffing (recipe follows)
• Vegetable cooking spray
• 1 cup reduced-sodium fat-free beef broth

Directions

1. Pound flank steak with meat mallet until even thickness (scant 3/4 inch thick). Using sharp knife, score steak diagonally in diamond pattern on both sides. Place steak in shallow glass baking dish; pour dressing over. Refrigerate, covered, 1-1/2 to 2 hours, turning steak occasionally.
2. Remove steak from marinade; reserve marinade. Spread Vegetable stuffing on steak, leaving 2-inch margin along sides. Roll up lengthwise, jelly-roll style; secure edge with wooden picks, or tie with kitchen string.
3. Spray large oven-proof skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add meat and brown on all sides. Add broth to skillet, stirring to dissolve juices from bottom; add reserved marinade. Bake, covered, at 325 degrees until meat thermometer registers 140 degrees (medium) or 160 degrees F. (well-done), 30 to 45 minutes.
