Make this recipe your own by using different sausages and cheeses. For a Middle Eastern spin, sub in lamb sausage and feta. Serve pizzas with hot sauce. Ingredients:
1 loaf ciabatta bread (about 1 pound) |
1 cup chopped green onions |
8 tablespoons olive oil, divided |
8 ounces sliced hot pepper monterey jack cheese |
1 pound spicy or sweet italian sausages, casings removed |
8 large eggs |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Cut bread horizontally in half. Place bread halves, cut side up, on separate baking sheets. Mix onions and 6 tablespoons oil in small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve 2 tablespoons onion oil and spread remaining onion oil over bread. Top with cheese.
2. Sauté Italian sausages in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until cooked through, breaking up with spoon, about 7 minutes. Divide sausage among bread halves. Bake pizzas until cheese melts and bread begins to crisp, about 10 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in each of 2 large skillets over medium-high heat. Crack 4 eggs into each skillet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let eggs stand in skillets while pizzas bake.
4. Arrange 4 eggs atop each pizza. Spoon reserved onion oil over eggs. Cut each pizza between eggs into 4 pieces.
5. TEST-KITCHEN TIP: Having brunch? Assemble and chill the pizzas one day ahead. Then bake and top with fried eggs at mealtime.
