- 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 cups provolone cheese, shredded
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

- Roll out the pizza crust on a floured surface and transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
- Spread the cooked steak evenly over the crust, followed by the sautéed onions and peppers.
- Top with shredded provolone cheese, distributing it evenly.
