  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 lb ground beef
– 8 oz spicy chorizo sausage
– 1 pre-made pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
– 1 cup pizza sauce
– 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1 cup sliced bell peppers (red and green)
– 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
– Olive oil for brushing
– Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Making your Spicy Chorizo Beef Pizza is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.
2. Cook the Meats: In a skillet, cook the ground beef and chorizo over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
3. Prepare the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Add Sauce: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Layer the Cheese: Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
6. Spread the Meats: Evenly distribute the cooked beef and chorizo over the cheese layer.
7. Add Veggies: Top with sliced bell peppers and red onion for added flavor and crunch.
8. Finish with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top, along with dried oregano and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
9. Brush the Crust: Lightly brush the edges of the crust with olive oil for a golden finish.
10. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
11. Cool and Garnish: Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if preferred.
12. Slice and Serve: Cut into slices and serve hot.

These clear steps will guide you in creating a delicious and satisfying Spicy Chorizo Beef Pizza effortlessly.
