Author: Pizza Today
Recipe type: Pizza
Ingredients
- 1 14-inch pizza shell
- ½ pound boneless sirloin or top sirloin or flank steak
- 1 cup tomato puree or all-purpose ground tomatoes
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ tablespoon (or to taste) crushed red pepper flakes
- 8 ounces shredded mozzarella and provolone blend
Instructions
- Grill or pan-fry steak until it is a bit less than medium-are (if you can, save any juices that the steak throws off).
- Slice ⅛-inch thick, then cube each slice.
- Set aside.
- Combine tomatoes, garlic, oregano, basil, olive oil and red pepper flakes.
- Add some of the juices from the cooking of the steak, if available.
- This is your sauce.
- Spread it on the pia crust.
- Lay the slices of steak on top of the sauce.
- Sprinkle on the cheese blend.
- The deal here is to allow chunks of the steak to show through the cheese after the bake.
- A variation to the steak pizzaiola recipe goes like this: Same size pizza shell. Same pizza sauce.
- Additions include thin slivers of roasted yellow and green bell peppers.
