Steak and Blue Cheese Pizza

Pizza Pizza Pizza. It's a food I refuse to give up, but sometimes you just can't or don't want to order out so you take on making one yourself. I love my little recipe that I tried the other night, it was messy and scrumptious and will be added to my 'make again' list. The main thing here is, that I like not tasting the grease from take out places on my palette and I love that my homemade concoction can be just as good if not better. So steer clear of the take out and try taking on your own creation tonight!:


Ingredients for Dough (makes for 2 pizzas):
  • 1/2 tbsp salt
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic salt
  • 3 cups flour divided
  • 2 and 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
Ingredients for topping:
  • 1/2 cup pasta sauce (your choosing of type and how saucy you want it)
  • 1 large flank steak peppered and chopped into strips (cooked)
  • 1/2 purple onion chopped thinly
  • 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp of crumbles blue cheese (i added more due to my love of cheese)
  • worcestershire sauce
  • grated parmesan 
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. In a large bowl mix together half of your flour, salts,yeast, oil and water. Mix until sticky and combined. 
  3. Then add your other half of flour and stir slowly until mixture is no longer lumpy.
  4. Separate your dough in half, freeze one half for another time and place your other half on a lightly floured surface.
  5. Next kneed your dough incorporating one more 1/4 cup of flour until well mixed. Flatten out until desired thickness in dough.
  6. Bake for 8 minutes.
  7. In a frying pan cook your meat and onion together in a little olive oil and your balsamic vinegar. set to side.
  8. When your crust is done baking add your sauce. Then add your cheese, onion and meat.
  9. Lightly drizzle worcestershire sauce over your toppings.
  10. Bake for another 8 minutes. 
  11. Sprinkle parmesan over the pizza and serve!
The pizza dough doesn't take long at all, which is a huge help. I hope you enjoy this recipe and eating it as much as we did. Happy Eatings Everyone!
