CHEF JOHN'S STEAK PIZZAIOLA



Chef John's Steak Pizzaiola image

There are hundreds of ways to make pizzaiola, from versions featuring slowly braised tough cuts of beef to quickly seared tenderloin medallions, like I used here. The one thing most people agree on is that you should, if at all possible, use really fresh, very sweet, vine-ripened tomatoes. Serve on top of toasted bread with mozzarella cheese.

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound beef tenderloin steaks, cut into 4 medallions
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
2 teaspoons butter
1 pinch salt
1 cup sliced sweet and hot peppers
4 cloves garlic, crushed
½ cup white wine
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup tomato concasse (see footnote for recipe link)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Season steak medallions with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Reduce heat to medium; add peppers and cook and stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute. Pour in wine and sprinkle in dried oregano. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until the wine is nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes.

  • Place steaks back into the skillet with the mushroom mixture and cook until warmed through and cooked to desired doneness, 4 to 10 minutes.

Try this recipe for a melt-in-the mouth steak with simple Italian sauce

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Supper

Time 28m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tbsp olive oil
300-350g/10oz-12oz beef steak , such as sirloin, rump or ribeye, about 2cm/¾in thick
250g vine-ripened tomato , or 400g can chopped tomatoes
2-3 fat garlic clove , chopped
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
pinch dried oregano or marjoram
6large basil leaves , roughly torn

Steps:

  • Make the sauce. If using fresh tomatoes, roughly chop them. Place in a pan with the garlic, oil, oregano or marjoram and season to taste. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins, stirring once or twice. Take off the heat, stir in the basil, then set aside.
  • When ready to serve, heat a heavy-based frying pan until you can feel a strong heat rising. Smear the oil on both sides of the steak and season each side. Slap the steak into the centre of the pan and adjust the heat to medium-high. Cook for 6 mins, turning halfway through - this is for medium rare. For a medium steak, allow 7-8 mins in total, allow 8-10 mins for well done.
  • Remove from the pan to a warm platter and leave to stand for 5 mins. Cut in two and serve drizzled with any juices and topped with the sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: A chuck roast or flank steak is a good option for this recipe, as they are both flavorful and relatively inexpensive cuts of meat.
  • Brown the beef in batches: This will help to prevent the meat from steaming and will give it a nice caramelized flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the meat will not brown properly and will release too much liquid.
  • Cook the sauce until it is thick and flavorful: This will take about 30 minutes. Be sure to taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Serve the beef with your favorite sides: mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta are all good options.

Conclusion:

Beef with Pizzaiola Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The beef is braised in a flavorful tomato sauce with onions, peppers, and olives. The sauce can be made ahead of time, making this recipe even easier. Serve the beef with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
