EASY CAST-IRON SKILLET PIZZA



Easy Cast-Iron Skillet Pizza image

This recipe is sponsored by Target. I am certifiably pizza-obsessed. Several years ago, I went to a pizza school called Verace Pizza Napoletana, whose mission is to "defend the honor of Neapolitan pizza." To me, there is no pizza better than a Neapolitan pizza margherita. A thin, bubbly crust made of double-zero flour, simple tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, and fresh basil, cooked in 90 seconds in a 900 degrees F (480 degrees C) wood-burning pizza oven. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Let's be honest, though, it's not realistic to make that kind of pizza at home very often, if at all. If you find yourself with a hankering for pizza, and you want to whip up a homemade version without waiting for dough to rise, this is the recipe for you. Homemade pizza dough with just two ingredients-Greek yogurt and self-rising flour-and no wait time for it to rise. It's food science at its best!

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons extra-virgin oil
1 cup (240 milliliters) Greek yogurt
1 cup (125 grams) self-rising flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup (60 milliliters) pizza sauce (jarred or homemade), such as Good & Gather™️ Traditional Pizza Sauce
4 ounces (1 cup) (115 grams) grated low-moisture part-skim mozzarella, such as Good & Gather™️ Mozzarella Cheese
2 tablespoons (1/2 ounce) grated Parmesan, plus more for serving, such as Good & Gather™️ Parmesan Cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Brush a 12-inch (30.5-centimeter) cast-iron skillet with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
  • Mix the yogurt, flour and salt together in a medium bowl with your hands until it becomes a ball, then flatten into a disk and press into the skillet.
  • Brush the pizza dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a 1-inch (2.5 centimeter) border around the sides, for the crust. Sprinkle the cheeses evenly over the sauce. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until bubbly and lightly browned, then let cool in the pan for 3 minutes.
  • Carefully slide the pizza out onto a cutting board. Top with more grated Parmesan, slice and serve.

"STEAK AND EGG" SKILLET PIZZA



A cast-iron skillet will make quick work of this breakfast-inspired pie and it will turn out a crisp, chewy crust that rivals what a traditional pizza oven can do. Hearty enough for the main event, this pizza is made by spreading a spiced ground beef mixture over the crust, then cracking a few eggs on top midway through cooking so they stay sunny-side-up. When the yolks are broken at the table, they combine with a mix of mild cheddar and briny feta to make a downright decadent sauce.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
8 ounces ground beef or ground lamb
1 cup minced onion (from 1 small)
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
12 ounces pizza dough, room temperature
2 ounces feta, room temperature, crumbled (1/2 cup)
4 ounces mild white cheddar, grated (1 1/4 cups)
4 large eggs
Salad, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500°. Heat oil in a large ovenproof cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add beef, onion, and allspice; season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat with a spoon, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Remove skillet from heat; carefully wipe clean. Drizzle skillet with oil. Using your hands, stretch dough into an approximately 12-inch circle; place in skillet, stretching to edges.
  • Sprinkle dough round evenly with feta, cheddar, and meat mixture, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until cheeses have melted and crust is crisp on bottom, 14 to 16 minutes. Remove skillet from oven. Using the back of a spoon, make 4 small divots in meat mixture and add 1 egg to each. Bake until egg whites are set but yolks are still runny, 7 to 9 minutes more. Let cool in skillet 5 minutes before serving with salad.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will result in a better-tasting pizza.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworked dough will be tough and chewy. Mix until the dough just comes together, then stop.
  • Let the dough rest before baking. This will allow the gluten to relax and the dough to rise, resulting in a light and airy crust.
  • Preheat the skillet over medium-high heat. This will help the pizza cook evenly and prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. A well-seasoned skillet will help the pizza cook evenly and prevent it from sticking.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook.
  • Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Skillet pizzas are a quick and easy way to enjoy delicious, homemade pizza. With a few simple tips, you can make a skillet pizza that is just as good as, if not better than, your favorite takeout pizza. So next time you're craving pizza, give skillet pizza a try. You won't be disappointed.
