Crafting the Perfect Chimichurri

The secret to this pizza's success starts with a well-prepared chimichurri. Fresh herbs like parsley and coriander, combined with garlic, red wine vinegar, and olive oil, create a sauce that sings in harmony with the tender steak slices.

Ingredients

  • Pizza dough: 1 lb
  • Ribeye steak: 10 oz, grilled and sliced
  • Red bell peppers: 2, roasted and sliced
  • Mozzarella cheese: 1 1/2 cups, shredded
  • For the chimichurri sauce:
  • Fresh parsley: 1 cup, chopped
  • Fresh cilantro: 1/2 cup, chopped
  • Garlic: 4 cloves, minced
  • Red wine vinegar: 2 tbsp
  • Olive oil: 1/2 cup
  • Red pepper flakes: 1 tsp
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Мethod of preparation

1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven as it heats. 2. Prepare the chimichurri sauce by combining parsley, cilantro, garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside. 3. Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness and transfer it onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel dusted with cornmeal. 4. Spread a generous amount of chimichurri sauce over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges. 5. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the chimichurri base. 6. Arrange the grilled ribeye steak slices and roasted red bell pepper slices evenly over the cheese. 7. Transfer the pizza into the oven. If using a pizza stone, slide the pizza directly onto the stone. 8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. 9. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. 10. Finish with a fresh drizzle of chimichurri sauce and serve immediately.
