Garlic-Stuffed Sirloin
1/4 cup peeled garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 pounds boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut 2-inches thick
Cook garlic in oil in a small nonstick frying pan over low heat until
tender, about 5 minutes.
Add onions, increase heat to medium-low and continue cooking until
onions are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper.
Remove from heat; let cool.
Preheat grill.
Meanwhile, trim excess fat from steak. Make a horizontal cut through
the center of the steak parallel to the surface of the meat, about 1
inch from each side, to form a pocket. Cut up to but not through the
opposite side. Spoon cooled garlic mixture into pocket, spreading
evenly. Secure opening with toothpicks.
Place steaks on grill over medium-low heat. Cover and grill for 26 to
32 minutes or to desired doneness, turning once. Remove picks and
carve steaks into ½-inch slices.
Makes 12 servings.
Cooking Tip: If it's too cold to go out and fire up the grill, you
could cook the steaks in the broiler as well
