CHEESY MUFFIN PIZZAS

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 12 muffin pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 4-ounce chicken breast cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 cup (4 ounces) coarsely grated whole-milk mozzarella
2/3 cup chopped baby spinach
1/2 cup (4 ounces) mascarpone
1/3 cup finely grated Parmesan (about 1 ounce)
1/3 cup purchased tomato-basil sauce
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (about 1/2 a small lemon)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 pound ball fresh pizza dough

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the chicken, mozzarella, spinach, mascarpone, Parmesan, tomato-basil sauce, basil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Spray a standard 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray.
  • Lightly flour a work surface. Roll out the pizza dough to a thin large round, about 1/8-inch thick. Using a 3 1/2- to 4-inch-diameter round cutter, cut out 12 rounds for pizza crusts. Working with 1 crust at a time, settle 1 dough round into the prepared muffin pan. Press and pull the dough up the sides of the cup. Rotate the pan and repeat until the dough covers the bottom and sides. Pack in 2 to 3 tablespoons of filling. Repeat with the remaining dough rounds and filling.
  • Bake the pizzas until the crusts are golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 16 to 18 minutes. Let stand 1 minute. Then use a small knife to loosen the pizzas. Arrange on a platter and serve.

ENGLISH MUFFIN MUMMY PIZZAS

These Halloween-themed English muffins pizzas are as delicious as they are playful. Olive-topped pepperoni slices form eyes while super thin slices of zucchini and yellow squash resemble the cloth that wraps these cute mummified snacks.

Provided by Justin Chapple

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 English muffins, split
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
1 small yellow squash
1 small zucchini
3/4 cup 12 tablespoons marinara sauce
3/4 cup 12 tablespoons shredded low-moisture mozzarella
16 thin slices pepperoni
16 rounds sliced black olives
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Dried oregano, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange the muffins split side up on a large rimmed baking sheet, brush the muffins with oil and bake until barely browned but slightly dried, 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, trim the ends of the yellow squash and zucchini and cut them in half lengthwise, then thinly shave them with a vegetable peeler.
  • Spread 1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons of the marinara sauce onto each muffin half in an even layer, then sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cheese. Arrange 2 pepperoni slices on the upper third of each muffin half so they overlap slightly, then place an olive slice on each pepperoni slice to resemble eyes. Arrange the shaved yellow squash and zucchini to slightly cover the tops and bottoms of the olive slices, then place in slightly overlapping layers across each muffin half to resemble the cloth of a mummy. Trim the excess to 1/4 inch around the edges. Reserve any remaining squash for another use.
  • Brush the mummy pizzas with oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake until the cheese melts and the squash wilts slightly, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with oregano and serve.

Provided by Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Side Dish

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup fat-free egg product or 4 eggs
1/4 cup fat-free (skim) milk
Dash of salt
Dash of pepper
2 teaspoons canola or soybean oil
2 tablespoons chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped red bell pepper
2 tablespoons chopped cooked ham
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese (2 oz)
2 whole wheat English muffins, split, toasted

Steps:

  • In small bowl, beat egg product, milk, salt and pepper with wire whisk or fork until well blended.

Pour egg mixture into skillet. As eggs begin to set at bottom and side, gently lift cooked portions with spatula so that uncooked egg can flow to bottom.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality pizza sauce. A homemade sauce is always best, but if you're short on time, a store-bought sauce will do.
  • Don't overload the English muffins with toppings. Too many toppings will make the muffins soggy.
  • Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the pizzas. This will help the pizzas cook evenly.
  • Watch the pizzas closely while they're baking. They can burn quickly.
  • Let the pizzas cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help prevent the cheese from running off the pizzas.

Conclusion:

Cheesy pizza English muffins are a quick and easy meal that the whole family will love. They're perfect for a busy weeknight dinner or a fun weekend lunch. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy.
