Prepare the Flank Steak:
- Begin by pounding the flank steak to about 1/2 inch thickness to help tenderize it.
- Spread 3 tablespoons of butter evenly over the steak.
- Sprinkle minced garlic, dried thyme, sage, basil, salt, and pepper over the buttered steak.
-
Roll and Secure:
- Roll up the steak jelly-roll style with the long side facing you.
- Secure the roll with skewers or toothpicks about 1 inch apart to ensure it stays intact during cooking.
-
Brown the Steak:
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Brown the outside of the steak in the skillet until it develops a golden crust.
- Transfer the browned steak to the crock pot.
-
Prepare the Sauce:
- In the same skillet, add chopped onions and sliced mushrooms.
- Sauté until browned and slightly caramelized.
- Add diced tomatoes, tomato paste, hot chili peppers, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sour cream, and bay leaf to the skillet.
- Mix well and let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly.
-
Combine Steak and Sauce in Crock Pot:
- Pour the prepared sauce over the browned steak in the crock pot, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
- Set the crock pot to low heat and cook for 5-6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- After 5 hours, add half of the chopped parsley to the crock pot.
-
Cook Linguine:
- Meanwhile, cook the linguine according to the package instructions until al dente.
- Drain the linguine and toss it with 2 tablespoons of butter and the remaining chopped parsley.
-
Serve:
- Once the flank steak is tender and cooked through, remove it from the crock pot.
- Slice the steak into 1-inch thick pieces and arrange them on individual serving plates.
