Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Prepare the onions by peeling and slicing them into small pieces.
- Wrap each onion with a slice of bacon and secure with toothpicks.
- Season the round steak with your preferred seasoning and flour.
- Wrap the bacon-onion bundles with the seasoned steak, securing with toothpicks.
- Sear the roll-ups in the hot oil until browned on all sides, about 10-15 minutes.
- Ensure the steak is cooked through and bacon is crispy before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, marinate the round steak in your favorite spices or a splash of soy sauce for a few hours before wrapping. If you’d like a healthier alternative, consider using turkey bacon instead of pork bacon. Make sure to use a heavy skillet for even cooking and avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure a good sear. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover steak or bacon.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the steak and onion roll-ups with a side of mashed potatoes or a fresh garden salad for a complete meal. They pair beautifully with a tangy dipping sauce, such as a balsamic reduction or a spicy mustard. For a comforting dinner, consider serving them alongside a bowl of Salisbury Steak Skillet Supper.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the roll-ups in a skillet over medium heat, adding a splash of oil if needed, and cook until heated through. Alternatively, you can use a microwave, but be cautious not to overcook as the bacon can become chewy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of meat for this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute round steak with flank steak or even chicken breast for a different flavor. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly, as chicken will require thorough cooking, while flank steak cooks quickly.
What can I do if I don't have toothpicks?
If you don't have toothpicks, you can use kitchen twine to tie the bundles securely. Alternatively, arrange them in a baking dish and cover with foil to hold them together during cooking.
Can I prepare these roll-ups ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can assemble the roll-ups a day in advance and store them in the refrigerator until you're ready to cook. Just make sure to bring them to room temperature before searing for the best results.
