Instructions
Creating Skillet Sausage and Kale Pesto Pizza is simple if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat the Skillet: Place a large skillet over medium heat and allow it to warm up.
2. Cook the Sausage: Add the Italian sausage to the skillet. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks (about 5-7 minutes).
3. Add the Kale: Once the sausage is cooked, stir in the chopped kale. Cook until the kale has wilted, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
4. Spread the Pesto: Remove the skillet from heat. Spread the pesto evenly over the sausage and kale mixture.
5. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the pesto-covered mixture.
6. Top with Pizza Crust: Place the pre-made pizza crust on top of the cheese, pressing it down gently.
7. Cook and Melt: Cover the skillet with a lid. Cook on low heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.
8. Slice and Serve: Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Carefully slide the pizza onto a cutting board and slice it into wedges.
These clear instructions guide you through the process of creating a flavorful and satisfying pizza effortlessly.
