🛒 Ingredients (Only 4!)
- 4 thin slices beef steak (sirloin or flank works best)
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
📝 Ingredient Notes
- Steak: Thin cuts are key for easy rolling and tenderness.

- Mushrooms: Use fresh for best flavor—button or cremini both work great.

👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the Steak
Lay the steak slices flat. If needed, gently pound them thinner for easy rolling.
2. Add Filling
Place a slice of Swiss cheese on each piece of steak. Top with a small amount of sliced mushrooms.
3. Roll & Secure
Roll each steak tightly and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
4. Sear the Rolls
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the steak rolls and sear on all sides until nicely browned (about 6–8 minutes total).
5. Cook Through
Lower the heat, cover, and cook for another 10–15 minutes, or until the steak is fully cooked and tender. The mushrooms will soften and create a delicious buttery sauce.
6. Serve
Remove toothpicks, spoon extra mushrooms and sauce over the top, and serve hot.
