#63 Chicago-Style Pan Pizza

 

Taken from Allrecipes.com

Ingredients

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf frozen bread dough, thawed
  • 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fennel seed
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. Crumble the sausage into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir until evenly browned. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon, and sprinkle over the dough crust. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the sausage.
  3. Add mushrooms and onion to the skillet; cook and stir until the onion is tender. Stir in the tomatoes, oregano, salt, fennel seed and garlic powder. Spoon over the mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
  4. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until crust is golden brown.


Taste: 4/5  I used homemade pizza dough, which was fine, but I also used minced pork instead of the italian sausage--not bad, but I believe the sausage and a bit more cheese would have made it a 5/5.    This is 20 min to oven if you use the frozen bread dough.

Brit-rating: HATE-d it.  "I prefer your other pizza."

Serve to guests: Not unless I could perfect the filling.
