Potato Pesto Feta Pizza image

This is a potato pizza with pesto, red onions, feta and much, much more. While it may sound odd on paper, it's quite delicious, and makes a good case for exceptions to the no starch-with-starch rule. Besides, it was a request from my mother-in-law, so what could I say?

Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 Yukon Gold potatoes
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1 ½ pounds prepared pizza dough
1 cup prepared basil pesto sauce
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
6 ounces shredded Fontina cheese
½ red onion, thinly sliced
4 ounces crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Scrub and dry potatoes, then prick several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove, cool, and cut into slices about 1/4-inch thick.
  • Sprinkle cornmeal over a half sheet pan. Stretch pizza dough over cornmeal to fit the pan; spread pesto sauce over dough.
  • Lay potatoes over the pesto in a single layer; season with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese over potatoes. Sprinkle Fontina cheese, red onion slices, and feta cheese on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven on the bottom rack for 10 minutes. Transfer pan to the middle rack and bake until crust is light golden and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.

This pizza was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning or maybe some additional toppings. The crust was also a bit too thick for my liking.

I'm not a huge fan of potato crust, but this pizza was really good! The pesto and feta were a great combination, and the potatoes were crispy and flavorful.

Easy to make and oh so delicious! The pesto and feta add a wonderful flavor to the pizza. I also added some grilled chicken and it was perfect. Will definitely make this again.
