Why This Recipe Works

We use smoky chipotle chile powder both in our easy no-cook pizza sauce and as a rub for the steak.

Instructions

  1. Combine oregano, chile powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper in bowl. Pulse tomatoes and their juice with half of spice mixture in food processor until coarsely chopped, about 5 pulses; transfer to bowl. Pat steak dry with paper towels and rub with remaining spice mixture. Grill steak, poblano, and onion, uncovered, over hot fire until well charred and meat registers 125 degrees, about 3 minutes per side for steak and 4 minutes per side for vegetables. Transfer steak and vegetables to carving board, tent with aluminum foil, and let rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice steak against grain; slice poblano into thin strips; separate onion rings.
  2. Roll dough into 12-inch circle on lightly floured counter. Grill dough, uncovered, over hot fire until underside is spotty brown and top is bubbly, about 3 minutes. Flip dough and top with tomato sauce, steak, poblano, onion, and cheese. Continue to grill, covered, until cheese is melted and dough is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to carving board and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve.
