Categories     Spinach

Time 1h

Yield 1 14, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
chicago style deep dish pizza dough (Chicago Style Deep-Dish Pizza Dough)
1 1/4 lbs low-moisture mozzarella cheese, thickly sliced
10 ounces baby spinach leaves, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
3 1/2 cups tomato sauce (Tomato Sauce for Chicago Style Pizza)
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack on the second-lowest level in the oven and place a baking stone, if using one, on the rack. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Brush a 14 inch round deep-dish pizza pan with the olive oil. Starting in the middle and using your fingertips. press the dough evenly to cover the bottom and about 2 inches up the sides of the pan. Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in the pan for 15-20 minutes.
  • To assemble the pizza, lightly press the dough up the sides of the pan if it has slid back down. Lay half of the mozzarella slices over the pizza dough, overlapping to cover the dough completely.
  • Toss the spinach with the garlic and a few grindings of pepper. Arrange the spinach mixture over the mozzarella. Arrange the rest of the mozzarella over the spinach. Ladle the tomato sauce evenly over the mozzarella. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top of the sauce.
  • Place the pizza in the oven on the rack or baking stone and reduce the temperature to 450 degrees F. (Work quickly so the oven temperature doesn't drop too much). Bake the pizza until the crust is crisp and a deep golden brown, and the cheese is golden, about 30 minutes. Remove the pizza from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Use a knife to loosen the crust from the sides of the pan.
  • Cut the pizza into large wedges and then slide a metal spatula until the bottom crust to remove and lift out the wedges. Serve immediately.

SPINACH & FRESH MOZZARELLA PIZZA RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Spinach & Fresh Mozzarella Pizza Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-70803

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 Pound Plain Pizza Dough
1 8-Ounce Can Tomato Sauce
8 Ounces Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
8 Ounces Spinach
3 Cloves Garlic
1 Lemon
1 Red Onion
1 Tablespoon Honey
1/4 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare the ingredients: Preheat the oven to 475°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Using a peeler, remove the yellow rind of the lemon, avoiding the white pith; mince the rind to get 2 teaspoons of zest (or use a zester). Quarter and deseed the lemon. Peel and mince the garlic. Peel, halve and thinly slice the onion. Tear the mozzarella cheese into small pieces. 2. Make the chile honey: In a small bowl, combine the honey and as much of the crushed red pepper flakes as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Set aside in a warm place. 3. Cook & drain the spinach: In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the spinach; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until wilted. Transfer to a strainer; hold or rest the strainer over a bowl. Using a spoon, press down on the cooked spinach to release as much liquid as possible; discard the liquid. Wipe out the pan. 4. Make the sauce In the pan used to cook the spinach, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the garlic and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until softened and fragrant. Add the tomato sauce; stir until thoroughly combined. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper to taste. 5. Prepare the dough & assemble the pizza Lightly oil a sheet pan. Place the dough in the center of the oiled sheet pan; using your hands, stretch to a ¼-inch thickness. Gently rub the dough into the sheet pan to oil the bottom. Spread the sauce onto the prepared dough. Evenly top with the mozzarella cheese, drained spinach and lemon zest; season with salt and pepper. 6. Bake the pizza & serve your dish Place the pizza in the oven and bake, turning halfway through, 16 to 18 minutes, or until the cheese is lightly browned and the crust is crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes before serving. Just before serving, drizzle the baked pizza with as much of the chile honey as you'd like and top with the juice of as many lemon wedges as you'd like (you may have extra). Enjoy!

CREAMY CHEESY SPINACH DIP



Creamy Cheesy Spinach Dip image

This recipe doesn't contain mayo or sour cream like most, so it's very cheesy and very delicious. I'm asked for the recipe every time I make it. For those who don't want a strong cheese like Cheddar, you can replace it with anything you like or even leave it out altogether. I like adding the Cheddar because it adds color and a little more flavor.
