Cast Iron Deep Dish Pizza

Ingredients

  • pizza crust – See the recipe here
  • 8-10 Slices of mozzarella cheese
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 lb. sausage
  • Pizza sauce
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Butter

Directions

Make the pizza dough. While it’s rising, start browning and seasoning the ground beef to your liking, brown the sausage and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Coat the entire inside of the cast iron skillet with butter. Place the pizza dough in the pan, making sure to go up the sides of the skillet with the dough. Using a fork, poke holes in the dough to help it not rise when you pre-cook it.

Cook the dough in a 400 degree oven for 5-8 minutes.

Take the dough out of the oven and place the mozzarella cheese slices in the pan completely covering the bottom of the pan. This helps to keep the crust crunchy. Next, spread the hamburger evenly over the cheese. Add some shredded mozzarella cheese next and top it with some pizza sauce. The sausage is spread out next with more mozzarella cheese on top of it. You can add more sauce if you like it saucy. Don’t worry if your ingredients are slightly over the top of the pan, it will reduce in height as it cooks.

Melt some butter and spread it anywhere you can see the dough. Place in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the dough starts to get golden brown. You can turn on the broiler at this point if you want the cheese done more.

This is the hardest part of the recipe. After pulling the pizza from the oven, let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!

Shakshuka

Ingredients

  • Ingredients
  • 1 Tbsp olive Oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 clove of garlic (more to taste)
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
  • 1 28oz crushed tomatoes
  • 1 14oz diced tomatoes
  • 1 tomato paste (half a small can)
  • Sausage links (if you don’t need it to be Kosher)
  • 6 eggs

Spices

  • 1.5 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • .5 Tbsp parsley
  • To taste: Salt, Pepper and cayenne pepper for spicier taste.

Directions

Heat the oil (1 Tablespoon) and add chopped onions (medium diced onion).

Once the onions start to soften add garlic (1 clove or more to taste). Sauté until you can start to smell the garlic.

Add the bell peppers (1 red pepper) and sauté for 5-7 minutes

Add crushed tomatoes (28 oz), diced (14oz), tomato paste (half of a small can) and the sausage links if you are using them. If using sausage links I recommend cutting them into smaller pieces so they’re easier to eat. Stir thoroughly until bubbly and then turn down heat to start simmering.

Add spices and mix thoroughly. Continue to simmer for 5-7 more minutes.

Crack the eggs into the mixture, spacing them evenly.

Cover the pan and allow to simmer for 10-15 more minutes. (10 minutes for less done eggs)


Great to serve challah bread to be dipped into the mixture.
