About 1/4 cup grated Pecorino cheese
2 tablespoons water
About 1 tablespoon acacia honey
1 scant teaspoon Calabrian chili paste or chili flakes
Basil leaves

Salt and pepper
1/2 cup oil-cured black olives
2 to 3 tablespoons capers
4 to 5 cups arugula or baby kale

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 525 to 550 degrees F, as high as it goes, with rack at center. Preheat cast-iron skillet, 10 to 12 inches, over medium-high heat. Preheat a second smaller cast-iron or other skillet over medium-high heat for the sausage.
  • Gather your ingredients.
  • In a food processor, whizz up sauce: tomatoes, paste, garlic, oregano, sugar, salt and a few leaves of basil.
  • Stretch dough into an even round that will cover large skillet.
  • Drizzle a little EVOO in smaller skillet. Cut sausage from casing, add to pan and lightly brown and crumble. Turn pan off.
  • Sprinkle a little cornmeal and flour in larger skillet and press dough into and up sides as much as possible. The pan is hot -- reminder. Brush the dough with EVOO and season with a little salt and pepper or red pepper flakes. Top the dough with the sauce and sausage, scatter the cheeses over the sausage and place in oven.
  • To the sausage skillet, add a little water, honey and chili paste and stir to combine (reheat your pan if it's not warm enough to heat the honey).
  • Bake the pizza 15 minutes to deep golden brown and bubbly. Drizzle or brush the pizza with the chili honey mixture and top with torn basil.
  • To a mixer with dough hook attached, add warm water and yeast and let the yeast bloom and foam, 5 minutes.
  • Add EVOO, honey and salt and turn on mixer. Add the flour gradually to form dough. Transfer to a bowl drizzled with a little EVOO and cover; let stand 1 hour.
  • Cut dough in half; wrap half the dough and freeze for later use.
  • Using a mandoline or very sharp knife, thinly slice the fennel and the red onion and place in a bowl. Add juice of orange and lemon and season with salt and pepper. Pit olives and coarsely chop; add to bowl. Add capers and arugula or kale. When ready to serve, add EVOO, 2 slow turns of the bowl, toss and serve.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients first: Before you start cooking, make sure all of your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This will help you save time and avoid any scrambling in the kitchen.
  • Use a large skillet: This recipe is best made in a large skillet so that you have plenty of room to cook the pasta and sausage. A 12-inch skillet is a good size.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: When you're cooking the pasta, make sure to not overcrowd the skillet. Otherwise, the pasta will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian. It refers to the texture of pasta that is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it. This is the ideal texture for pasta in this recipe.
  • Use a flavorful smoked sausage: The type of smoked sausage you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Choose a sausage that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Add some vegetables: If you want to add some extra vegetables to the dish, you can stir in some chopped bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms.
  • Season to taste: Once the dish is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add some additional salt, pepper, or garlic powder.
