Instructions
1- Prepare the Dough:
- In a large bowl, combine yeast and sugar with 1 cup of warm water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it begins to foam.
- Add salt, olive oil, and flour to the yeast mixture. Gradually add the remaining water and knead the dough until smooth.
- Grease a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, place the dough in the bowl, and cover with a heavy towel. Let it rest for 40 minutes to 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
2- Make the White Sauce:
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until combined.
- Slowly add milk, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Add parmesan cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth. Set aside.
3- Prepare the Toppings:
- Heat a skillet over high heat. Add the shaved beef and cook for 5 minutes or until fully cooked.
- Add the sliced mushrooms, onion, bell pepper, and Montreal steak seasoning. Sauté for a few more minutes until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat.
4- Assemble the Pizza:
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
- Spread the white sauce evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella and provolone cheese over the sauce.
- Add the cooked steak and vegetable mixture on top.
- Finish with another layer of cheese.
5- Bake:
- Transfer the pizza to a baking tray or pizza stone and place it in the oven.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
6- Enjoy:
- Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven. Allow it to cool slightly, slice, and serve.
