Pizzaiola is a classic of Neapolitan cuisine. The dish is made with cuts of (often inexpensive) meat that are cooked in a combination of tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and sometimes a bit of white wine if the dish is cooked in the oven. The tomato sauce is usually flavored with oregano and basil, and it braises the meat with a slow-cooking process that breaks down the proteins in the meat and makes the cuts tender.
