Grilled Beef, Andouille Sausage And Blue Cheese Roulades
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 pound andouille sausage
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onions
- 1/2 pound Maytag Blue cheese
- 1 pound flank steak, cut into 4 (4 ounce) pieces
- Essence
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
- SMOTHERED POTATOES:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup thinly sliced onions
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 pound walnut halves (about 1 cup)
- 1 pound new potatoes, quartered and roasted
- 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
- 2 cups veal reduction
Directions
- Preheat the grill. Place each piece of flank steak between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meal mallet, pound each steak about 1/4 inch thick. Remove and discard the plastic wrap. Season both sides of the steak with Essence. Spoon 2 ounces of the sausage mixture evenly over each steak. Sprinkle 2 ounces of the cheese, evenly over each steak. Start at one end, roll up each steak tightly, forming a jelly-roll like shape. Secure each roulade with three toothpicks. Place the roulades on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on all sides, for medium rare. Remove from the grill and rest for a couple of minutes before slicing. Using a sharp knife, slice each roulade into 1/2 inch slices. To serve, spoon the potatoes in the center of each plate. Arrange the roulade slices around the potatoes. Garnish with parsley.
