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
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (224°C).
- Let your pizza dough come to room temperature, then knead and roll it out to your desired thickness using plenty of flour.
- Rinse the cranberries, chop them lightly in a food processor, add cane sugar, and mix thoroughly. Set aside.
- In a non-stick skillet, cook bacon at medium heat until browned on each side.
- Combine garlic powder, cayenne, and parsley flakes; coat the sirloin top and bottom with this mixture.
- In the same skillet, cook the sirloin at medium heat for about one minute per side. Cut into slices immediately.
For the pizza sauce
- In a small saucepan, melt butter and garlic. Stir in flour and whisk until thickened.
- Add milk and lemon juice, whisking until creamy, like an Alfredo sauce.
- Pour sauce onto the pizza crust and spread evenly.
- Top with sliced onion, garlic, and gorgonzola cheese.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (224°C) and cook the pizza for 7 minutes.
- Remove from oven, top with baby kale, bacon, and sirloin.
- Return to oven and cook for another 5 minutes.
- 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.
