Authentic Matambre a la Pizza Recipe - A Taste of Argentina

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 kg flank steak (or any similar cut)
  • 2 cups tomato sauce (preferably homemade)
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (sliced)
  • 1 cup onions (sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for grilling)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the Flank Steak

    Season the flank steak with salt, pepper, and oregano on both sides.

    Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes for better flavor.
  2. Preheat the Grill

    Heat your grill to medium-high heat and brush with olive oil.

    Ensure the grill is hot enough to sear the meat.
  3. Grill the Steak

    Place the flank steak on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes per side.

    Look for a nice char on the outside.
  4. Add Toppings

    Spread the tomato sauce over the grilled steak, then add onions, bell peppers, and mozzarella cheese.

    Feel free to add your favorite toppings.
  5. Finish Grilling

    Close the grill lid and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

    Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
  6. Serve

    Remove from the grill, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve.

    Pair with a fresh salad for a complete meal.
