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.

Time 40m

Yield 4

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.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add steaks and cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Reserve oil in skillet.
  • Place mushrooms and butter into the skillet and season with salt; cook and stir until mushrooms are softened and beginning to brown, 5 to 6 minutes. 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.
  • Stir tomato concasse into the mushroom mixture and simmer until tomato is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add fresh oregano, balsamic vinegar, and red pepper flakes; stir to combine. Adjust salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Place steaks back into the skillet with the mushroom mixture and cook until warmed through and cooked to desired doneness, 4 to 10 minutes.
