Great for when you have thick and thin crust lovers who have a fondness for alliteration. Ingredients:
7 ounces prepared pizza dough |
all-purpose flour, for rolling |
semolina flour (or cornmeal), for dusting |
1/4 cup marinara sauce |
8 thin slices lean salami |
1/8 cup grated mozzarella |
1/8 cup grated provolone |
1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1/2 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1/2 slightly ripe avocado, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices |
1 sweet italian sausage, removed from the casing and crumbled |
1/2 andouille sausage, thinly sliced |
1 teaspoon pine nuts |
2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan |
Directions:
1. Place a pizza stone onto the floor of the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
2. On a lightly floured surface, toss and shape the dough so that one side has a thick crust and the other thin and it looks like the crumbling Roman Coliseum. Transfer onto a pizza paddle that has been well-dusted with semolina flour. Coat the center of the dough with marinara sauce. Cover with a layer of salami and then the cheese. Place the peppers and avocado in a spoke pattern around the pizza. Scatter over the sausages, pine nuts, and parmesan. Bake until the crust turns golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
3. Share and enjoy with beer or wine or both.
