Steakhouse Pizza

This was a good pizza (although my husband didn't think it was anything special). But, even so, it wasn't worth all the trouble that went into making it. There were too many steps.

Here is the recipe:

Pizza dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)
1 cup *white pizza sauce
1 lb. steak, cooked and thinly sliced
4 T *Gorgonzola butter  (melted)
*Crispy onion rings

Spread pizza dough in large cookie sheet. Spread white pizza sauce over the dough. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes. Arrange steak slices on top of pizza and drizzle with melted Gorgonzola butter. Top with crispy onion rings.


* Gorgonzola Butter
2 heads roasted garlic
1/2 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)
1/3 cup Gorgonzola cheese
1/4 tsp black pepper

In a small bowl, mash roasted garlic until smooth. Add the butter, stir to combine. Stir in Gorgonzola and black pepper.


* White Pizza Sauce
2 T butter
2 T flour
1 cup milk
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp salt

Melt butter. Whisk in flour and heat milk until thickened. Add spices.


*Crispy Onion Rings
1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk plus 1 T vinegar)
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
1 cup flour
1 T garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 cup coconut oil (for frying)

Place thinly sliced onion rings in a large bowl. Pour buttermilk over, toss to coat. Let stand for one hour. In another large bowl, mix flour and spices. Set aside.

Pour oil into a large pot. Working in small batches, shake excess buttermilk off and coat with flour mixture. Shake off excess flour and carefully drop into heated oil. Fry until golden brown.

Jalapeno Popper Pizza

This one is an acquired taste. If you like jalapenos, you will like this pizza. And if you don't, well...

Here's the recipe:

Pizza Dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)
16 oz bacon, diced
2 T olive oil
4 jalapenos, sliced
8 oz cream cheese
2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

Spread dough on a large cookie sheet.

Cook bacon until crispy.

In a small bowl, combine olive oil and jalapenos. Set aside

Spread cream cheese over pizza dough. Top with bacon, jalapeno mixture, and cheese.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.

Spinach Artichoke Pizza

This was just okay. Kind of bland. The family gave it an average rating of 7.1 out of 10.

Here's the recipe:

Pizza Dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)
1 T olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 cups cheese, shredded
13 oz can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
1-1/2 cups fresh spinach

Spread dough on large cookie sheet.

Mix the olive oil and garlic in small dish, then spread on pizza. Top with 1 cup cheese, artichokes, and spinach. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup of cheese.

Bake at 400 degrees for 14 minutes.

Charred Corn and Avocado Pizza

We were a little worried about this pizza because it didn't have a sauce attached to it, but it ended up being really good!

Here's the recipe:

Pizza Dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)
2 cups Pepper Jack cheese, shredded
2 cups frozen corn
1 poblano pepper, diced
1/3 cup chopped cilantro, optional  
2 avocados, sliced
Juice from one lime
Sriracha sauce, for serving

Cook corn in skillet for 5 minutes. Top pizza with cheese, corn kernels, peppers, and cilantro (optional). Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes. Remove from oven and top with avocado slices. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the pizza. Serve with Sriracha sauce, if desired.

Well, everybody, it doesn't look like I'm making much headway on my earnings. I guess that will happen when I hardly update and pay very little attention to this blog.

But we're making pizzas again, everybody! Pizzas!
