For the pizza sauce:

  2. Add milk and lemon juice, whisking until creamy like Alfredo sauce.
  3. Pour sauce onto pizza crust and spread evenly.

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.
