Ingredients

Seasoned breadcrumbs

0.25 cup(s)

Fresh parsley

0.25 cup(s)

Grated Pecorino Romano cheese

0.25 cup(s)

Hard boiled eggs

1 item(s), large

Garlic

2 medium clove(s)

Extra virgin olive oil

2 tsp

Uncooked trimmed top round steak

24 oz

Table salt

0.25 tsp

Arrabbiata sauce

24 oz

Red wine

4 fl oz

Instructions

1

Stir together bread crumbs, parsley, Romano, egg, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon oil in medium bowl.

2

Place steaks, in one layer, between two pieces of plastic wrap. With meat mallet or rolling pin, pound to 1/8-inch thickness. Remove top piece of plastic. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons filling onto each steak, leaving 1/2-inch border, gently pressing so it adheres. From short end, roll steaks up to enclose filling. Tie each roll at 1-inch intervals with kitchen twine. Sprinkle with salt.

3

Stir together arrabbiata sauce and wine in 5- or 6-quart slow cooker.

4

Heat remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef rolls and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer rolls to slow cooker, spooning sauce over. Cover and cook until beef is fork-tender, 4 to 5 hours on High or 8 to 9 hours on Low. Remove twine from rolls. Serve with sauce.

5

Per serving: 1 beef roll and scant 1/4 cup sauce.
