1

Take a large piece of alcatra beef and cut it into two large steaks.

3

Season the beef with salt and black pepper.

4

Heat a mixture of olive oil and margarine in a large cast iron skillet.

5

Grease the skillet to prevent sticking before adding the beef.

6

Sear the beef in the skillet until browned on both sides.

7

Prepare the vegetables (cabbage, carrot, broccoli, cauliflower) by seasoning them with salt and oregano.

8

Sauté the vegetables in the skillet until slightly cooked, then set aside.

9

In the same skillet, add butter and tomato sauce, and stir in a bit of sugar to reduce acidity.

10

Layer the beef in the skillet and pour the tomato sauce mixture over it.

11

Generously sprinkle parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese on top of the beef.

12

Cover the skillet with a lid to trap steam and cook the beef through.

13

Remove the lid and allow the cheese to melt and brown slightly.

14

Serve the beef with the sautéed vegetables on the side.
