Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) boneless beef steaks (ribeye, sirloin, or strip)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup pizza sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 16 pieces sliced pepperoni
• 0.25 cup sliced black olives
• 0.5 cup sliced green bell pepper
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons (optional, for garnish) fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper. Allow them to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Place the seared steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or in an oven-safe dish.

Step 6

Spread 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce over each steak, ensuring the top is evenly coated.

Step 7

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce on each steak.

Step 8

Top each steak with 4 slices of pepperoni, a few black olives, and some sliced green bell peppers.

Step 9

Sprinkle Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the toppings for added flavor.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden, and the steak reaches your desired doneness (aim for 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium when checked with a meat thermometer).

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the steaks rest for 5 minutes.

Step 12

Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving, if desired.

Step 13

Serve the baked pizza steaks immediately with a side salad, garlic bread, or pasta.
