BRACIOLA
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 1 Hour and 30 Minutes
Makes 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 pound top round steak
6 ounces mozzarella cheese
6 teaspoons butter
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup raisins
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce (or your own homemade tomato
sauce)
Directions:
1. Cut the steak into
4 to 6 pieces and pound each piece thinly with a mallet or the
side of a cleaver. Place a slice of mozzarella cheese and 1 teaspoon
of butter on each piece, then sprinkle each piece with Parmesan
cheese, garlic, and raisins, and season with salt and pepper.
2. Roll each piece tightly and
tie securely with string. Heat olive oil in a medium skillet
over medium high heat. Sauté each roll in the oil for
5 to 10 minutes, or until browned on all sides.
3. Drop these rolls into your
favorite simmering tomato sauce for 1 1/2 hours, or until tender.
Remove from sauce, cool slightly and remove the strings before
serving. |
