This is a recipe from a 1975 cookbook I have showcasing food from around the world (supposedly developed by chefs from each country). All the recipes have English names which isn’t entirely helpful (some of the dishes for other countries are authentic but have weirdly translated names), but I’m wondering if (a) this is an actual dish you could find in Italy, and (b) if so, any other information about it (what it’s called in Italian, what region it’s from, etc.)

This looks like a fancier version of [carne alla pizzaiola](https://ricette.giallozafferano.it/Carne-alla-pizzaiola.html), that is to say, “meat pizza”. As you might guess, it’s from Campania, specifically Naples.
You won’t really find it in restaurants in Italy, but that’s because it’s such a simple preparations, few restaurants bother having it on menu. On the other hand, it’s really common as a food cooked at home.
Maybe,
I love the esthetics of old cookbooks.
