I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of
Spiedini
...in your mind.

Directions

  1. Put the beef in the freezer 30-40 minutes - you want it firm for cutting
  2. Use a slicer to slice pieces quite thin, like no more than 1/8 inch thick if possible. Or if using a knife, safely cut to the thinness you're comfortable with, then pound to approximately ⅛ inch thick, and roughly 2 inches wide x 4 to 6 inches long
  3. Make breadcrumbs if not using store bought, and put on a plate - with a few tablespoons of olive oil on another plate
  4. Season slices with salt & pepper, lightly oil both sides, then dredge in the breadcrumbs - roll up and skewer
  5. Heat neutral oil on a flat griddle, and cook the spiedini until golden brown all the way around
  6. Serve with the dipping sauce
