Method

Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.  

Make a horizontal cut in side of each beef steak.  Do not  cut all the way through to opposite side.  This is not slicing, but creating pockets  

Mix pesto with 2 tablespoons cheese.  Spread the pesto mixture evenly on the insides of each meat pockets. Press pockets closed.  Drizzle oil over beef. Roll beef in 1/3 cup cheese until well coated.  

When the grill is ready, brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Cover and grill beef 4 to 5 inches from medium heat 12 to 14 minutes for medium doneness, turning once.

To serve, cut each beef steak into thick strips to reveal the vibrant pesto stuffing.

Serves: 4
