Potato Chip Pizza image

The first time I saw potatoes offered as a pizza topping, I thought that was one of the dumbest things I had ever seen. But then I tried it and realized that if done properly, they can be a fantastic pizza topping. The only problem is they're extremely hard to do properly since they need to cook through by the time our crust is done, which, long story short, led me to try potato chips, which worked out astonishingly well.

Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon cornmeal
2 (10 ounce) containers prepared pizza dough
1 cup prepared pesto sauce
1 ½ cups grated sharp white Cheddar cheese
1 (10 ounce) bag kettle-cooked potato chips
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 ½ cups grated mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Rub 2 sheet pans with a few teaspoons of olive oil, and sprinkle over a light dusting of cornmeal. Set aside.
  • Roll each dough ball into an oval shape about 1/8-inch thick and transfer onto the prepared pans. Cover each with pesto sauce, reserving about 2 tablespoons for the topping. Sprinkle each with Cheddar cheese. Add potato chips in one thick layer, overlapping chips as need to cover the surface.
  • For each pizza, thin out reserved pesto with a tablespoon of olive oil, and then drip and drizzle it over the top of the chips. Top with red onions and mozzarella. Drizzle the tops of the pizzas with a little bit of olive oil.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until top and bottom crust of pizza is browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
