Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 garlic cloves, finely grated
1/4 cup tomato paste
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more
12 ounces ground lamb
All-purpose flour (for dusting)
8 ounces prepared pizza dough, cut in half, room temperature
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more for drizzling
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup parsley leaves with tender stems
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Crushed red pepper flakes (for serving)

Steps:

  • Place a baking sheet on a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 500°F. Mix garlic, tomato paste, cinnamon, cumin, paprika, and 3/4 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Mix in lamb.
  • Working with 1 piece of dough and keeping remaining piece covered, gently stretch dough into a 10x8" oval and transfer to a lightly floured parchment-lined baking sheet. (If dough springs back, cover and let rest 10 minutes, then stretch again, resting as needed.) Crumble half of the lamb mixture over dough and brush edges with 1 Tbsp. oil. Slide onto preheated baking sheet and bake until crust is golden brown, 6-8 minutes. Transfer pizza to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining dough, lamb mixture, and 1 Tbsp. oil. Drizzle pizzas with more oil.
  • Toss onion, parsley, and lemon juice in a bowl; season with salt. Scatter over pizzas; sprinkle with red pepper flakes.

Overall, I thought this pizza was pretty good. The lamb was a bit dry, but the salad was delicious.

This pizza was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. The lamb was tender and the salad was refreshing.

I'm not a big fan of lamb, but I thought this pizza was pretty good. The crust was crispy and the toppings were flavorful.

The crust was crispy and the lamb was cooked perfectly. The salad was a nice touch, but I would have liked more of it.

I love lamb, so I was excited to try this recipe. The pizza was good, but I found the lamb to be a bit dry. I think I would have preferred to use ground lamb instead.

This pizza was easy to make and turned out great. I used ground beef instead of lamb, and it was still delicious. The salad was a nice addition, too.

I wasn't sure about the combination of lamb and red onion, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors worked really well together. I especially liked the spicy kick from the chili flakes.

This pizza was a hit with my family! The lamb was perfectly cooked, tender and flavorful. The parsley-red onion salad added a nice freshness and crunch. I will definitely be making this again.
