Ingredients
- 1 chile de árbol, stemmed
- 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup Maggi sauce (or soy sauce)
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 8 oz flank steak (or skirt steak)
- 3 spring onions or 1 bunch scallions (5–6), trimmed to bite-size
- 8 oz pizza dough
- All-purpose flour (for dusting)
- 1/2 cup tomato pizza sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
- 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced (for garnish)
- Fresh cilantro leaves (for garnish)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges (for garnish)
Instructions
- Make the Marinade: Toast the chile de árbol in a dry skillet for 1 minute per side. Blend with garlic, Worcestershire, Maggi (or soy) sauce, and lime juice. Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade.
- Marinate the Steak: Place steak in a zip-lock bag or dish and coat with remaining marinade. Refrigerate 2 hours to overnight.
- Cook the Steak: Remove steak from marinade. Broil or grill 3 minutes per side until rare to medium rare. Rest 5–10 minutes, then slice against the grain into 1–2 inch pieces.
- Marinate the Onions: Toss spring onions in the reserved 1/4 cup marinade.
- Prebake the Crust: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Stretch dough into a 10–12″ circle on a floured surface. Bake on a pizza stone or cast-iron pan for 10 minutes.
- Assemble the Pizza: Spread pizza sauce over crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Add 3/4 cup mozzarella, then the steak and onions. Top with remaining cheese.
- Bake Again: Return to oven and bake for 12–14 minutes until cheese is melted and crust is golden.
- Garnish & Serve: Top with sliced avocado, cilantro, scallions, and lime wedges. Drizzle with reserved onion marinade.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add extra chiles de árbol to the marinade.
- Substitute skirt steak with ribeye for a richer flavor.
- Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be reheated in a hot skillet or air fryer.
