Argentinean-Style Pot Roast

Ingredients
1 (2 lb) flank steak, trummed
1-1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. freshly ground black pepper
1/4 t. Spanish smoked paprika
1-1/2 C. chopped onion 
1 C. chopped red bell pepper
5 garlic cloves, minced
2 C. loosely packed baby spinach
1 C. Argentinean malbec or other dry red wine
1 (14 oz) can fat-free, less-sodium beef broth
1 t. chopped fresh oregano
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F.

Cut horizontally through center of steak, cutting to, but not through the other side using a sharp knife; open flat as you would a book.  Combine salt, pepper, and paprika, stirring well; run surface of both sides of steak with salt mixture.

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.  Coat pan lightly with olive oil.  Add onion and bell pepper; saute 5 minutes or until tender.  Add garlic; saute 1 minute.  Add spinach; saute 30 seconds or until wilted.

Spread onion mixture over steak, leaving a 1/2-in margin around outside edges; fold top over onion mixture, and secure with wooden picks.

Place pan back over medium-high heat.  Recoat pan with cooking spray.  Add steak to pan; cook 5 minutes.  Add wine and broth to pan; bring to a simmer.  Cover and bake at 350 F for 45 minutes or until steak is tender.  Remove steak from pan.  Cover and keep warm.

Place pan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil.  Cook until reduced to 1 C. (about 10 minutes).  Thinly slice steak; serve with sauce.  Sprinkle with oregano.
