PEPPERONI PIZZA PASTRIES



Pepperoni Pizza Pastries image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 ounces whole milk or part-skim ricotta, preferably Our Family
4 ounces shredded mozzarella, preferably Our Family
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
A good pinch kosher salt
Pinch dried oregano
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 green pepper, chopped
2 large eggs
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
6 tablespoons (94 grams) pizza sauce, plus more for serving
Mini pepperoni, for topping
Additional toppings as desired: onions, sausage, etc.

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine the ricotta, mozzarella, flour, salt, oregano, a few turns of pepper, the chopped green pepper and 1 of the eggs in a large bowl.
  • On a work surface lightly dusted with flour, roll the puff pastry out to 10-by-15 inches. If it gets sticky, dust with more flour. Cut the pastry into 6 squares and transfer to the lined baking sheet. Place a dollop of the cheese mixture into one of the corners of each square, leaving a 3/4-inch border. Create a well in the center of the cheese mixture and add a spoonful of sauce. Sprinkle with the mini pepperoni and any additional desired toppings. Beat the remaining egg with a splash of water in a bowl to make an egg wash and brush the edges of the pastry with it. Fold the pastry over and press to seal well, using a fork to pinch the edges. Repeat with the remaining pastry squares and filling. Brush the tops with the egg wash.
  • Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Bake until golden brown; begin checking for doneness at 30 minutes. (It's alright if some of them break open at the seams while baking; it's part of their rustic charm.) Let cool slightly, then serve warm with additional pizza sauce for dunking. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and are great cold the next morning for breakfast! You can also prepare a whole batch a day or two in advance, store them in the fridge, and reheat them for a few minutes in a 325 degree F oven before serving.

PEPPERONI PIZZAGNA



Pepperoni Pizzagna image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan
4 large button mushrooms, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
8 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1 small green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 24-ounce jar marinara sauce
1/2 cup roughly chopped deli-sliced ham (about 2 ounces)
1/4 cup pitted black olives, sliced
1 cup sliced pepperoni (about 3 ounces)
16 lasagna noodles
3 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (about 12 ounces)
1 8-ounce container whole-milk ricotta cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (about 1 ounce)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the sausage to the pot and cook, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Add the onion and bell pepper, season with salt and pepper and cook, scraping up the browned bits, until the vegetables soften, about 4 minutes. Add the marinara sauce, bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cooked mushrooms, ham, olives and about 3/4 cup pepperoni; season with salt and pepper. Let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush an 8-inch round springform pan with olive oil and line with foil, leaving an overhang. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook as the label directs; drain and toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Combine 2 cups mozzarella, the ricotta, parmesan and eggs in a bowl; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Wrap some lasagna noodles around the inside of the pan, overlapping slightly and trimming as needed. Cover the bottom of the pan with more noodles, overlapping slightly and letting them extend up the side of the pan. Spread 2 cups sauce in the pan and top with half of the ricotta mixture; cover with a layer of noodles. Repeat with 2 more cups sauce, the remaining ricotta mixture and another layer of noodles, letting them extend up the side of the pan (you might not use all the noodles). Top with the remaining sauce, 1 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup pepperoni.
  • Bake until browned and bubbling, about 1 hour (tent with foil if the top is browning too quickly). Let stand 30 minutes to 1 hour, then lift out of the pan using the foil. Remove the foil and slice.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) before baking the pizzaghetti.
  • If you don't have any garlic powder, you can use minced garlic instead. Just add it to the pan with the olive oil and cook until fragrant.
  • Feel free to use any type of cheese that you like. Mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan are all great options.
  • If you want a spicier pizzaghetti, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the sauce.
  • Serve the pizzaghetti with a side of garlic bread or a salad.

Conclusion:

Pepperoni pizzaghetti is a quick and easy weeknight meal that the whole family will love. It's a great way to use up leftover spaghetti and pepperoni, and it's also a fun and creative way to serve pizza. With its cheesy, gooey, and flavorful ingredients, this dish is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give pepperoni pizzaghetti a try. You won't be disappointed!
