How to Make Giada’s Braciole
- Gently pound the flank steak or sirloin to a ¼-inch thickness to ensure even cooking.
- In a mixing bowl, combine breadcrumbs, minced garlic, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Spoon the filling onto each beef slice, then roll it up tightly and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
- In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef rolls on all sides until browned.
- Remove the seared braciole, then sauté onions and minced garlic in the same pot until softened. Stir in crushed tomatoes, oregano, sugar, salt, and pepper.
- Return the beef rolls to the pot, cover and simmer on low for 1.5 to 2 hours.
- Once tender, remove toothpicks or twine, slice the braciole, and serve with sauce over pasta or polenta.
