Vodka Sauce Pizza image

This is a great recipe for a pizza I hadn't tried until I moved to Little Italy. The vodka pizza sauce is spicy, creamy, and sweet at the same time. Delicious!

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 teaspoons butter
2 medium shallots, chopped
1 slice bacon
⅓ cup vodka
1 (8 ounce) can crushed Roma tomatoes
2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves stripped and chopped
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
salt and ground black pepper to taste
⅓ cup heavy cream
1 refrigerated pizza crust
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Heat butter over medium-low heat in a large saute pan. Add shallots and bacon and cook until shallots are transparent and bacon is browned and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove bacon from the pan and reserve for another use. Increase heat to medium and stir shallots in bacon grease; pour in vodka and allow alcohol to burn off and reduce, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and add Roma tomatoes, thyme, rosemary, cayenne, pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and let simmer for 5 minutes. Add heavy cream slowly, a little at a time, over 3 to 4 minutes. Remove sauce from heat and let sit.
  • Place pizza crust on the prepared pan. Rub dough with olive oil; pour sauce over crust, and place mozzarella slices on top.
  • Bake pizza in the preheated oven until mozzarella cheese is melted and crust is golden, 12 to 18 minutes, depending on how thin or thick crust is.
