- Have the butcher slice the round steak very thin, about 1/4-inch thick.
- When home, lay the steak on waxed paper and pound thinner, being careful not to break the steak and allow holes to form.
- Once pounded, set aside.
- In a bowl combine the seasoned breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic, parsley, sauteed onion and salt and pepper.
- Mix well.
- Spread the mixture in a thin layer over the surface of each pounded round steak.
- Roll each steak up, jelly roll fashion, beginning at the narrowest end.
- Once rolled, secure with kitchen twine or toothpicks.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and brown the round steak rolls on all sides.
- Do not over cook.
- Brown lightly and quickly.
- Place the browned rolls in the tomato sauce that is simmering, and finish cooking the sauce and braciola together, about 1-2 hours.
- To serve, remove the roll from the sauce, and slice into 1-inch wide slices.
- Serve as a side with the pasta and other meats cooked in the sauce.
