Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pizza dough
  • 1/2 lb sirloin steak
  • 4 strips Canadian bacon
  • 1 Anaheim pepper
  • 1/4 lb onion, sliced
  • 3/4 lb cranberries
  • 5 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 cups (473 ml) baby kale
  • 1 cups (237 ml) crumbled gorgonzola cheese
  • 1 cups (237 ml) milk
  • 1/2 cup garlic powder
  • 4 tablespoons cane sugar
  • 4 tablespoons cayenne
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (224°C).
  2. Let your pizza dough come to room temperature, then knead and roll it out to your desired thickness using plenty of flour.
  3. Rinse the cranberries, chop them lightly in a food processor, add cane sugar, and mix thoroughly. Set aside.
  4. In a non-stick skillet, cook bacon at medium heat until browned on each side.
  5. Combine garlic powder, cayenne, and parsley flakes; coat the sirloin top and bottom with this mixture.
  6. In the same skillet, cook the sirloin at medium heat for about one minute per side. Cut into slices immediately.

For the pizza sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter and garlic. Stir in flour and whisk until thickened.
  2. Add milk and lemon juice, whisking until creamy, like an Alfredo sauce.
  3. Pour sauce onto the pizza crust and spread evenly.
  4. Top with sliced onion, garlic, and gorgonzola cheese.
  5. Preheat your oven to 450°F (224°C) and cook the pizza for 7 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven, top with baby kale, bacon, and sirloin.
  7. Return to oven and cook for another 5 minutes.
  8. Top with cranberry relish and serve immediately.

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.
