PEANUT BUTTER AND PEPPERONI PIZZA



Peanut Butter and Pepperoni Pizza image

Yes, you read that right! Peanut butter is the ingredient you didn't know you needed on pepperoni pizza. Inspired by a pie from Zorbaz on the Lake, one of my family's favorite spots in Minnesota, my version gets baked in a cast-iron skillet and topped with fresh jalapenos and "hot" (chile-spiked) honey.

Provided by Gabriela Rodiles

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon olive oil or neutral oil
1 pound refrigerated pizza dough, at room temperature
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup marinara sauce
2 cups shredded whole-milk mozzarella
1 cup mini pepperoni slices (or regular pepperoni slices)
1 large jalapeno, seeded and thinly sliced (about 1/3 cup)
Hot honey, such as Mike's (see Cook's Note), for serving, or honey mixed with hot sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1 clove garlic, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, or grainy or yellow mustard
1 teaspoon regular honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil or neutral oil
1 head romaine lettuce, roughly chopped (about 3 cups), or 3 cups mixed lettuce
1 head radicchio, roughly chopped (about 2 cups), optional
1/2 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup pepperoncini, drained and sliced, or pickled banana pepper rings
1/4 cup thinly sliced red or yellow onion

Steps:

  • For the pizza: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Grease a 12-inch cast-iron skillet with the oil. Place the pizza dough in the center and spread evenly to cover the bottom and 1 inch up the sides. Spread the peanut butter evenly over the dough followed by the marinara sauce. Sprinkle with the mozzarella followed by the pepperoni and then the jalapeno.
  • Bake until the cheese melts and browns and the edges are crisp, about 20 minutes. (This is a good time to start the salad.) Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes, then drizzle with hot honey before serving.
  • For the salad: Whisk together the vinegar, garlic, mustard, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pinch of black pepper and the oil in a medium bowl until combined. Set aside and let the garlic infuse the dressing, about 5 minutes. Remove the garlic and add the lettuce, radicchio if using, tomatoes, pepperoncini and onion; lightly toss to coat in the dressing. Serve with the pizza.

SAUSAGE AND PEPPERONI PIZZA "PIE"



Sausage and Pepperoni Pizza

Provided by Ann Ferguson Ward

Categories     Cheese     Pork     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Sausage     Summer     Bon Appétit     West Virginia     Small Plates

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound Italian sausage
1 15-ounce package refrigerated ready pie crusts
1 teaspoon all purpose flour
1 8-ounce package sliced mozzarella
2 cups purchased spaghetti sauce
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
3 ounces thinly sliced pepperoni
1/2 cup pimiento-stuffed olives, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Fry sausage in heavy medium skillet over medium heat until cooked through, turning occasionally, Drain. Dice sausage.
  • Dust 1 side of 1 crust with 1 teaspoon flour. Gently transfer crust to 9-inch-diameter pie pan, floured side down. Press into pan. Arrange half of mozzarella over bottom of crust. Spread 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce over mozzarella. Sprinkle half of Jack cheese atop sauce. Drizzle 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce over cheese. Top with half of pepperoni and half of sausage. Repeat layering with remaining mozzarella, 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce, remaining Jack cheese, pepperoni and sausage. Sprinkle with olives and drizzle with remaining 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce. Top with remaining pie crust. Pinch edges of crust together to seal. Crimp edges to make decorative border. Bake until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let pie stand 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh, flavorful tomatoes, a good quality mozzarella cheese, and a flavorful pepperoni.
  • Make your own pizza dough. This is not as difficult as you might think, and it will give you a much better crust than store-bought dough.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizza. If you put too many toppings on the pizza, it will be difficult to cook evenly and the crust will be soggy.
  • Bake the pizza at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the pizza from becoming soggy.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing it. This will help to prevent the cheese from becoming too runny.
