Armenian Pizza

This was good. There wasn't anything that special or unique about it though, surprisingly, because it kind of seemed like it should be. Vern said it tasted like a chili dog. (Here is where the original recipe came from, although I did alter it a bit.) Also, this was probably my first time having ground lamb, and it didn't taste any different to me than ground beef.

1 pound ground lamb
1/2 red onion, diced
Green bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 T cumin
1 tsp tumeric
1 tsp paprika
1/2 lemon
2 tomatoes, diced
2 T barbecue sauce
1 tsp parsley
Pizza dough
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 lime

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Saute red onion, garlic, and bell pepper for 2 minutes. Stir in the cumin, turmeric, and paprika.
  3. Add the ground lamb. Squeeze 1/2 lemon over lamb, and drop the peel into the mixture. Break up the meat and stir until it has browned. Remove lemon peel.
  4. Stir in the tomatoes, barbecue sauce, and parsley. Continue to simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. The mixture should be spreadable but not too wet or the crust will become soggy.
  5. Spoon meat mixture onto pizza dough. Sprinkle feta cheese over it.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes. Squeeze 1/2 lime lightly over the top.
