Instructions
Marinade
Cut beef into ⅛" slices and tenderize with a mallet if needed. Mix marinade together and coat beef. Allow to marinade in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
If Using Potatoes, Green Beans, Asparagus, or Carrots:
Rinse all vegetables being used. Ensure peeled carrots, potatoes, and asparagus are about ¼" in thickness. Slice the woody ends off of the asparagus and trim the ends of green beans, if you're cooking with them.The vegetables need to be blanched (partially cooked or parooked) before adding to the beef roll-ups in order for them to be fully cooked after they're grilled. Blanching is the process of boiling vegetables in hot water for a short period of time.Blanching guidelines:Potatoes: Boil 3 MinutesCarrots: Boil 2 MinutesGreen Beans: Boil 2 MinutesAsparagus: Boil 2-3 Minutes, depending on thicknessOnce cooked, drain the water. Plunge all vegetables into an ice bath immediately after cooking. Once cooled, season with salt and pepper.
If Using Onions & Peppers:
Rinse vegetables and remove any dirt. Slice onion and peppers into ¼" slices. Add them to a hot pan over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and allow them to cook for about 2 minutes until they are tender-crisp. Remove from the heat.
Preparing the Beef Roll-Ups and Grilling
Lay beef slices flat on a cutting board or clean surface. Place 4-5 pieces of vegetables on the beef and roll them closed with a toothpick to keep them in place. Set the grill to high heat. Grill beef roll-ups for 2 minutes on each side (or until desired doneness.)
