FOUR CHEESE WHITE BROCCOLI PIZZA (EASY)



Four Cheese White Broccoli Pizza (Easy) image

A fabulous white pizza... again, four cheeses are used (grated parmesan, provolone, ricotta, & mozzarella) as well as fresh broccoli florets. You could substitute with spinach if you like, but we LOVE this recipe as is... I buy the pre-made pizza dough from my grocery store to save time, but you could always make your own of course. Also, I use MILD provolone - it's pre-packaged & pre-sliced think it is Belgioioso brand. Note: I use the 12 oz. bag of "Broccoli Wokly" which is already cut into florets - I steam it according to the package directions first in the bag & use the full bag on the pizza.

Sunny's Easy Chili Cheese French Bread Pizza image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 16 slices

Number Of Ingredients 15

One 2-foot-long wide loaf French bread, sliced in half lengthwise
1/4 cup herbed garlic butter, melted
4 cups Sunny's 5-Ingredient Chili, recipe follows
1 cup shredded mozzarella (from a block)
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar (from a block)
16 slices fresh jalapeno (from 1 to 2 jalapenos)
2 scallions, chopped on the bias
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Hot sauce, for topping
Mexican crema, for drizzling
1 large onion, chopped
2 to 3 tablespoons chili powder
2 1/2 pounds ground chuck
Two 10-ounce cans diced tomatoes and green chiles
One 16-ounce can black, pinto or kidney beans, drained

Steps:

  • For the pizza: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Remove a bit of bread from the inside of each bread half, leaving about 1 inch of bread in the base. Brush the insides and edges with the garlic butter and place the bread on a baking sheet. Bake until golden on the edges, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven.
  • Evenly distribute the Chili along the length of the bread. Sprinkle the cheese over the top and arrange the jalapenos so there will be one slice on each serving. Bake until the cheese is melted and the edges of the bread are golden, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • For the garnish: Top the pizza with the scallions, cilantro, a few shakes of hot sauce and a drizzle of crema. Slice each half into 8 pieces. Serve immediately.
  • Add 2 tablespoons olive or cooking oil, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt, a few grinds of black pepper and the onion to a large pot over medium heat and cook until tender. Add the chili powder and beef and cook, breaking up the beef into bits, until cooked through. Stir in the tomatoes and chiles and the beans, then cover and cook for 20 minutes. To thicken the chili further, simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best taste. Fresh mozzarella cheese, flavorful tomatoes, and a crispy crust will make all the difference.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook evenly.
  • Bake the pizza at a high temperature for a crispy crust. The ideal temperature is between 450°F and 500°F.
  • Keep an eye on the pizza while it's baking. It can go from perfectly cooked to burnt in a matter of minutes.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the cheese to set and prevent it from becoming stringy.
