MUSHROOM AND SAUSAGE PIZZA



Mushroom and Sausage Pizza image

Provided by Dave Lieberman

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 6 to 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/4 cup olive oil
1 pound white mushrooms, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, smashed
Kosher salt
Flour, for rolling dough
1/2 recipe Basic Pizza Dough, recipe follows
1/2 cup Basic Tomato Sauce, recipe follows
3 ounces sopressata, cut into 1/3-inch thick slices
1 pound fresh mozzarella, grated
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 package active dry yeast
3/4 cup warm water, about 110 degrees F
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for kneading
1 teaspoon salt
1 (28-ounce) can chopped tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons dried oregano
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and let sit for about 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
  • In a medium saute pan over medium-high heat, heat olive oil and add mushrooms and garlic. Season mushrooms with kosher salt and cook until mushrooms release their juices and begin to brown, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Lightly dust work surface with flour and roll dough into a circle, about 10 inches in diameter and about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Place dough on an oven-proof splatter screen and gently spread with a thin layer of tomato sauce, leaving a 1/2-inch border along the edge. Top the dough with mozzarella, mushroom mixture, and sopressata. Sprinkle the pizza with red pepper flakes. Bake until cheese has melted and the bottom of the crust is brown and crispy, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together yeast, warm water, sugar and olive oil. Let sit for about 3 minutes to fully dissolve and activate the yeast.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
  • With a rubber spatula, gradually mix the yeast mixture into the flour until just combined and dough barely holds together. Turn the dough out onto a clean counter surface dusted with flour.
  • Knead the dough with flour-dusted hands until the dough has become smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. The surface should be tight and silky and bounce back slightly when pressed. Lightly grease a large mixing bowl with olive oil and place the dough in it.
  • Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Once doubled, punch the dough down and divide it into 2 equal pieces. Knead each 1 slightly to form a uniform ball. Set aside and cover them with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap to rest for 30 minutes.

Sausage, Mushroom, and Pickled-Pepper Pizza image

Italian sausage, pickled cherry peppers, and umami-rich shiitake mushrooms take this pan pizza into bold territory. The pie is made with a fast-rising dough so it's almost as fast-and twice as delicious-as delivery.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dinner Recipes

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound Quick and Easy Pizza Dough
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup marinara sauce, such as Rao's Homemade
8 ounces low-moisture mozzarella, such as Polly-O, thinly sliced
8 ounces sweet Italian sausage, removed from casings and crumbled into bite-size pieces
2 ounces shiitake-mushroom caps, halved, or sliced if large
1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
1/4 cup pickled cherry or Peppadew peppers, halved
Fresh basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F with a pizza stone or baking sheet set on a rack in lowest position. Drizzle 3 tablespoons oil onto a rimmed quarter-sheet pan (9 by 12 1/2 inches). Stretch dough to edges of pan. Drizzle evenly with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread marinara evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top evenly with cheese, then sausage, mushrooms, onion, and peppers. Bake in pan on stone until bubbly and crust is golden brown and set on bottom, 20 to 22 minutes. Top with basil; serve.

SHEET PAN SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM PIZZA



Sheet Pan Sausage and Mushroom Pizza image

This giant rectangular pizza is made with from-scratch dough that's easy to work with and gets fluffy, chewy and unbelievably crisp in the oven. For our toppings, we opted for spicy sausage and meaty mushrooms -- a classic flavor profile that's universally loved. Putting the cheese underneath the sauce helps the thicker crust stay crisp. Tip: If you make a lot of pizza, invest in a black steel pan. It gets wonderfully hot and helps crisp up the crust.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water (about 100 degrees F)
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
One 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
12 ounces hot Italian sausage, casings removed (about 4 links)
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced
6 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
1 pound part-skim mozzarella, thinly sliced
Torn fresh basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • For the dough: combine the flour, sugar, salt and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Combine the warm water and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a liquid measuring cup. Turn the mixer to low and add the water mixture, mixing until a loose ball forms. (You can also do this by hand: Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, then add the water and oil and stir with a wooden spoon.)
  • Increase the speed to medium-high and knead the dough until smooth and slightly tacky, about 7 minutes. (If using your hands, gather the dough into a ball, turn it out onto a floured surface and knead, dusting your hands and the surface as needed with flour, until the dough is smooth and slightly tacky, about 5 minutes.)
  • Pour the remaining 1/3 cup olive oil into an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet or rectangular black steel pan. Transfer the ball of dough to the pan, turning to coat it with oil. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until the dough fills about two-thirds of the pan, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Slide your hands under the dough and lift, gently stretching it to fit the pan. (It's OK if it doesn't stretch to the corners.) For the final rise, loosely cover with plastic wrap and set aside until slightly puffy, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • While the dough rises, position the oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. If you have a pizza stone, put it on the lower rack. Preheat the oven to its highest bake setting, 500 to 525 degrees F. Once the oven comes to temperature, heat for at least 1 hour before baking your pizza.
  • For the pizza: stir the crushed tomatoes, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper together in a medium bowl or 2-cup liquid measuring cup until combined.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until it is browned at the edges and no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. Add the mushrooms to the hot pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms are tender, about 4 minutes. Remove to a separate bowl to cool.
  • When the dough has risen and is ready for topping, sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan evenly over it all the way to the edges. Arrange the mozzarella over the dough leaving a 1/2-inch border. Spoon the tomato sauce over the cheese leaving some of the cheese exposed. Sprinkle the cooled sausage and mushrooms over the sauce, then sprinkle with the remaining 3 tablespoons Parmesan.
  • Put the pizza pan directly on the pizza stone if using, and bake until the crust is browned at the edges and the cheese is bubbling and browned in spots, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan to a wire rack to cool slightly before removing the pizza from the pan, about 10 minutes. Top with torn basil, cut into squares and serve.
