Reviews
“This is a tasty recipe – A “do again” recipe.I used what I call a hairnet steak,It is sirloin, cut to one serving size, with webbing around the out side.I cut through the webbing in the middle on one side and stuffed it. Only did one steak but the recipe is easy to scale back. I used cottage cheese instead of sour cream.Thanks Derf for another winner”
