BEEF WITH PIZZAIOLA SAUCE



Beef with Pizzaiola Sauce image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings, depending on size of beef shoulder

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 to 2 pound beef shoulder
2 tablespoons Irvine Spices Smokey Rotisserie Seasoning
2 tablespoons Irvine Spices Garlic Pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, stem and seeds removed and sliced julienne
1 green bell pepper, stem and seeds removed and sliced julienne
2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley leaves
1 tablespoon freshly chopped basil leaves
2 teaspoon freshly chopped oregano leaves
1 large can (29 to 32-ounces) crushed tomatoes
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup pepperoncini from a jar, for garnish

Steps:

  • Rinse beef shoulder to remove any unwanted smells, pat dry with paper toweling, and place on a utility platter. In a small bowl, make the rub for the beef by combining Smokey Rotisserie Seasoning and Garlic Pepper. Rub the seasonings into all surfaces of the beef, cover with a sheet of plastic wrap and set aside for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours at room temperature. (The seasonings will actually begin to "cure" the meat.);
  • Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan and cook the onions, garlic, and red and green peppers until the onions begin to turn translucent and the peppers begin to soften, being careful not to burn the garlic. Stir in the parsley, basil, and oregano. Add the crushed tomatoes and bay leaf. Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In an oven proof skillet heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over high heat, and sear all sides of beef. Cover pan (with lid or foil) and transfer to oven to finish, bringing to an internal temperature of 115 degrees F, on an instant-read thermometer, for medium-rare (about 30 minutes). Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Slice beef into steaks, and transfer to serving dish. Reheat pizziola sauce if necessary, remove bay leaf, and spoon over meat. Garnish with the pepperoncini.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds boneless sirloin steak (about 1 inch thick), excess fat trimmed
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 large onion, sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 bell peppers (1 red, 1 yellow), sliced 1/2 inch thick
4 jarred pepperoncini, drained and thinly sliced
1 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Pinch of red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Focaccia, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the steak all over with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Add the garlic to the skillet. Once it sizzles, add the onion and bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften slightly, about 4 minutes. Add the pepperoncini, tomatoes, oregano, red pepper flakes and 3/4 cup water and stir to combine. Bring to a rapid simmer, then nestle the steak in the sauce and simmer, turning once, until medium rare, about 7 minutes.
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest about 5 minutes. Continue simmering the sauce until thickened, about 3 more minutes. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and divide among plates. Top with the sauce and parsley. Serve with focaccia.

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.
