Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs, sun-dried tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil leaves, and pine nuts.
- Add the lightly beaten egg to the mixture and stir until well combined.
- Lay each beef fillet on a clean, flat surface. If the fillets are too thick, you may need to gently pound them with a meat mallet to make them thinner and easier to roll.
- Season the beef fillets lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place a portion of the stuffing mixture onto one end of each beef fillet.
- Carefully roll the beef fillets tightly around the stuffing to form a roll. You can secure them with kitchen twine or toothpicks if necessary.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the beef olives to the skillet. Sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are browned all over.
- Once the beef olives are browned, add the beef broth to the skillet.
- Bring the broth to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low.
- Cover the skillet and let the beef olives simmer for about 25-30 minutes or until they are fully cooked and tender.
- Remove the beef olives from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes.
- Cut the twine or remove the toothpicks before serving.
- Serve the beef olives hot, with the sauce from the skillet drizzled over them. You can also garnish with additional basil leaves or Parmesan cheese if desired.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality beef fillets for the best flavor and tenderness.
- Toast the pine nuts lightly to enhance their nutty flavor before adding them to the stuffing mixture.
- If you don’t have sun-dried tomatoes, you can substitute them with cherry tomatoes or tomato paste.
- Make sure to preheat your oven to ensure even cooking of the beef olives.
- Use kitchen twine to secure the beef fillets tightly after stuffing to prevent the filling from spilling out during cooking.
- Allow the beef olives to rest for a few minutes before serving to let the juices redistribute.
Cooking beef olives requires a bit of preparation, but the end result is well worth the effort. The combination of tender beef and flavorful stuffing creates a memorable dish that will please any palate. Serve your beef olives with a side of mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad for a complete and satisfying meal. Enjoy your culinary creation and the compliments it is sure to receive from your dining companions!
