How to Make - New York Steak Pizza with Blue Cheese and Balsamic Glaze

Time: 3 hours 30 minutes
Complexity: easily
Servings: 4

An elegant pizza that harmoniously combines the flavors of tart blue cheese, juicy beef steak, savory watercress, and a sweet balsamic glaze. This pizza is cooked entirely on the grill. You can prepare the dough in advance and roll it out as needed before cooking. For convenience, store-bought pizza dough is also suitable. First, the pizza crust is grilled on the grill, then topped with cheeses, and when the cheeses are melted, thinly sliced medium-rare New York strip steak is added. Slice the steak against the grain for a smooth bite. Finishing touches include lush greens, a drizzle of balsamic glaze, and shaved Parmesan.

Pizza: Preheat grill to high heat.

Brush both sides of the pizza with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Grill until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the grill, sprinkle the two pizzas evenly with Monterey Jack cheese, then sprinkle with blue cheese. Place on the grill, close the lid, and grill until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Transfer the pizzas to a flat surface, evenly distribute the steak slices, then top with watercress, drizzle with balsamic glaze, and sprinkle with shaved Parmesan.
Pizza dough

In a large bowl, combine 1/3 cup water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add the remaining 1/3 cup water, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 3/4 cups flour, cornmeal, and salt and knead the dough. Continue kneading on a floured surface, adding more of the remaining 1/4 cup flour as needed, until the dough is non-stick and elastic, about 5-10 minutes. Form the dough into a ball.

Lightly grease the inside of a large bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turn it to coat, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Gently punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece out on a lightly floured surface into a 10-inch (25 cm) circle, 0.3 cm thick. Shake off any excess flour and transfer the dough to a baking sheet. Cover each circle with plastic wrap and stack the circles on top of each other. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
