If you are looking for an alternative to traditional oven-baked pizza, Stove Top Pizza is easy to make in a non-stick skillet and satisfies any pizza cravings!
2-3tablespoonschopped pancetta if desired or 1 sausage casing removed(10 grams)
½cupgrated firm mozzarella (I probably used more we like cheese) or more if desired(100 grams)
EXTRAS
2-3tablespoonsparmesan cheese
Instructions
In a small bowl toss together the chopped tomatoes, salt, oregano, chopped basil leaves and olive oil. Set aside.
Lightly grease a 9 1/2 inch (24 cm) heavy-duty frying pan.
Line the bottom of the pan with the dough. Heat on low - medium heat covered for approximately 10 minutes until the bottom is lightly browned. Flip the dough over.
On the browned side add the tomato mixture, pancetta and mozzarella, place around the border also.
Cover and continue to cook on low to low/medium (more low then medium) heat for another 15 minutes. Uncover lower heat and continue for approximately 5 minutes. Check it after 10 minutes making sure it doesn't burn. Serve immediately sprinkled with parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
**Check your heat, remember not too high or it will just burn and not cook completely
Notes
If you like a veggie pizza then you can stir fry a cup of sliced mushrooms, a cup of sliced peppers in a frying pan with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil, a sprinkle of oregano, parsley, 1-2 pinches of salt and 1/4 cup of water, cook on medium heat until water has evaporated and mushrooms and peppers are lightly browned and tender.Instead of pizza you can make calzone - Line the bottom of the pan with dough, cover half the dough with the tomato mixture, pancetta, mozzarella and 2-3 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional), fold the other half over, pinch the sides closed so none of the filling escapes, cook covered on medium heat 15-20 minutes on each side. Serve immediately. Enjoy!Store any leftover pizza in an airtight container or wrapped well in plastic or foil, it will keep 3-4 days in the fridge.If you have leftover stove top pizza, reheat it the same way you made it, in the skillet! This helps retain some crispness to the crust. Heat until your pizza is warmed through and enjoy!
