Ingredients

• For the Beef and Marinade:
• - 1 pound beef sirloin, cut into bite-sized pieces
• - 1/4 cup olive oil
• - 2 cloves garlic, minced
• - 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• - 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• - Salt and pepper to taste
• For the Pizza:
• - 1 pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
• - 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce
• - 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
• - 1/2 cup sliced red onion
• - 1/2 cup sliced Kalamata olives
• - 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
• - 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• - Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the beef sirloin pieces and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for maximum flavor.
2. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated beef onto skewers and grill for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on your pizza dough packaging.
4. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
5. Spread the tzatziki sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
6. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the tzatziki sauce. Top with sliced red onion, Kalamata olives, diced tomatoes, and the grilled beef souvlaki.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for the time specified on your pizza dough packaging, or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are heated through.
8. Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil for added flavor.
9. Slice and serve the Greek-Italian fusion Beef Souvlaki Pizza hot, and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors.
