Taco Pizza
Ingredients
- 1 pound store-bought pizza dough
- All-purpose flour, for sprinkling
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
- 3/4 cup canned refried black beans
- 1/2 cup store-bought salsa
- 1 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 3 scallions, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup sliced pickled jalapenos
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- Juice of 1 lime
- Thinly sliced romaine lettuce, for topping
- Diced tomato, for topping
- Kosher salt
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Method
Step 1: Place a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured work surface into an 11-inch round. Transfer to a parchment-covered pizza peel or another upside-down baking sheet.
Step 2: Brush the dough with olive oil, then spread the refried beans on top, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Spoon the salsa over the beans and sprinkle with the cheese. Scatter the scallions and jalapenos on top.
Step 3: Slide the pizza and parchment onto the hot stone and bake until the crust is crisp 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool a few minutes.
Step 4: While the pizza is baking, combine the sour cream, half of the lime juice and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. In another bowl, toss the lettuce, tomato, and lime juice to taste; season with salt.
Step 5: Top the pizza with the salad, then drizzle with the sour cream mixture and sprinkle with the cilantro. Cut into slices.
