Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large portobello mushroom caps, stems removed
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small red onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound ground turkey
salt to taste
2 roma (plum) tomatoes, diced
1 (8 ounce) jar basil pesto
6 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
2 ounces grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • Coat portobello mushrooms with about 1/4 cup olive oil on both sides; arrange mushrooms gill-side up on a baking sheet.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until onion begins to turn translucent, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Stir turkey into onion mixture and reduce heat to medium-high; season with salt. Continue cooking and stirring until turkey is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Drain turkey, reserving about 1 tablespoon grease in the skillet.
  • Stir tomatoes and pesto sauce into the turkey; simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Place a slice of mozzarella cheese in the center of each mushroom cap and sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese.
  • Divide turkey pesto sauce evenly over the mushroom caps.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese has melted, 10 to 15 minutes.

The pizza crust was a little too thick for my liking. I would recommend rolling it out thinner next time.

This pizza was a little too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the sauce.

I'm not usually a fan of turkey on pizza, but this recipe changed my mind. The turkey was perfectly cooked and flavorful.
