You want the steak to be pinking red in the middle, so don't over cook it. Remove from the heat and place on a cutting board to rest. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over med. heat. Add the red onion sliced and balsamic vinegar and cook stirring, until soft, 12-15 min. Brush a rimmed baking sheet with olive oil. Stretch the pizza dough on the baking sheet with your fingers until the dough reaches the edges of the pan. Sprinkle the mozzarella over over the dough. Scatter the onion slices on top, then sprinkle with the blue cheese. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and hot, 12-15 min. Drizzle the spinach with the olive oil in a bowl and season with S&P. Pull the pizza from the oven and immediately scatter the spinach over the top. Thinly slice the steak. Lay the steak sliced on the pizza Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Slice the pizza onto a cutting board and cut into pieces.
