Instructions

For the flank steak, put all ingredients (minus the flank steak) in a food processor and pulse until a all ingredients are smooth. Transfer the marinade and the flank steak to a large ziplock baggie and marinate for 2-3 hours.

When ready to cook, remove steak from marinade (discarding marinade) and grill the steak on medium-high for 5-6 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking. I’m a medium rare girl….

For the pizza, preheat oven to 500F degrees.

Divide pizza dough in half and spread each dough until about 12-inches wide in a large circle.
Sprinkle baking sheet or stone with a tablespoon of cornmeal (optional) and then place dough on it.
Spread dough with 1/2 of cilantro pesto and sprinkle with half of cheese.
Place in a hot oven and bake for 12-14 minutes.
Remove pizza from oven and top with thinly sliced flank steak, chopped red onion, fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
Repeat to make a second pizza.
Enjoy!
