Corn Cilantro Jalapeno Pizza
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 recipe Homemade Pizza Dough
- 1 large ball of fresh mozzarella torn
- 1 cup shredded pepperjack cheese
- 1 cup roasted corn
- Sliced jalapeños
- chorizo or soy-rizo cooked and crumbled
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- red pepper flakes
For the Cilantro Vinaigrette
- 1 shallot roughly chopped
- 2 cups tightly packed fresh cilantro leaves stems removed (about 4 ounces)
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 500 degrees. Thirty minutes before cooking the pizza, put your pizza stone in the oven.
- Divide the pizza dough into 2 even pieces. Stretch each piece of dough in a circular motion, then lay them both out on a flat surface and flatten out using a rolling pin. If you have a pizza peel, sprinkle some flour on it and place the stretched out dough on the peel.
- Once your 2 pizza doughs are flat and ready to be cooked, use a spoon to spread the cilantro vinaigrette around the dough leaving a little bit for the crust.
- Tear the mozzarella into pieces and top each pizza with equal amounts of the mozzarella, pepper jack cheese, corn, jalapeños and chorizo. Transfer the pizzas into the oven and bake for 12-13 minutes until the crust is golden.
- Remove pizza from the oven. Season with salt and pepper and additional red pepper flakes if needed slice and serve.
