Grilled Flank Steak and Mushroom Pizza

During one of our summer cooking clubs, we made grilled pizza.  I really enjoyed the taste so Tim and I tried to recreate the steak and cheese pizza over Memorial Day weekend.  It turned out delicious and was a fun adventure to cook together as well.  (Big thanks to Kim for providing the recipe!)

Ingredients

Pizza Crust - You can use the recipe from the blog located here, or even get a mix from the store, your preference.  Prepare dough according to the directions.

1 pound flank steak
1/4 cup Italian salad dressing
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Pound steak flat, mix other three ingredients and marinate for about an hour
Grill steak medium rare and slice thin across the grain.

16 ounces mushrooms - sliced and saute'd in olive oil

Garlic White Sauce
4-5 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Melt butter and saute garlic 2-3 minute until tender,  Add flour and whisk to form a roux.  Whisk in milk and simmer for 5 minutes til thickened, then add parmesan cheese and salt and pepper to taste.

1 cup smoked gouda cheese
1 cup fontina cheese

Forming the pizza

Roll out the pizza crust and brush with olive oil on both sides.  Have all other ingredients by the grill (steak, mushrooms, garlic white sauce, cheeses).    Grill pizza crust 2-3 minutes on a grill sheet or pizza grill pan until lightly brown.  Take off the grill and flip pizza crust.  Now assemble the pizza - garlic white sauce, steak, mushrooms, and finally the grated cheese.  Grill pizza for 2-3 more minutes, cover to help the cheese melt.  Indirect heat will help to ensure the crust doesn't burn.

Enjoy the pizza!
