Pulled Pork Pizza
To start, you’ll want to gather all your ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb pulled pork (cooked and seasoned)
- 1 pre-made pizza dough or homemade pizza crust
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup corn (fresh or canned)
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.
- If you’re using homemade dough, roll it out on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. If you opt for pre-made dough, stretch it out to fit your pizza stone or baking sheet.
- In a medium bowl, combine the pulled pork with barbecue sauce, mixing well to coat the pork evenly. Adjust the amount of sauce based on how saucy you want your pizza to be.
- Spread a layer of the remaining barbecue sauce over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Evenly distribute the pulled pork mixture over the sauce, making sure each slice gets a generous scoop.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese liberally over the pulled pork, ensuring all areas are covered.
- Add the sliced red onion and corn to the top of the cheese, ensuring an even distribution.
- Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
- Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then sprinkle fresh cilantro on top for that extra flavor boost.
- Slice and serve hot, and enjoy the fantastic combination of flavors!
