Notes
- For a richer flavor, marinate the sirloin in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- If you don’t have gorgonzola, try a similar strong blue cheese or even a creamy goat cheese for a milder flavor.
- Leftover pizza can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; reheat gently in a skillet or oven.
