Roulade of Beef

I was wanting something hearty with the cold weather. I went to France for this dishes inspiration. We start with a thinly sliced round steak then dredged in seasoned flour which I pounded even thinner. I added wilted spinach and provolone cheese. Finally I rolled it up browned it and finished it in a marinara sauce slowly. I hope you like it.

4 thinly cut round steaks 1/4 inch thick
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
16 ounces double washed spinach
Cooking oil
8 ounces provolone cheese
Butchers twine
16 ounces marinara sauce

On a cutting board use a meat mallet to pound to 1/8 inch. Dredge again.

In an oven safe skillet on medium heat add 2 tablespoons of oil. Add spinach and wilt.
