Caramelized Onion Sausage and Goat Cheese Pizza
One of my favorite flavors is the taste of caramelized onions. When we decided to do pizzas for August I just knew that one of my pizzas would have to incorporate them! Add some mild Italian sausage and goat cheese and the result is a pizza with a hint of sweetness. Sweet! TIP: I rolled out the dough on a rubber pastry mat then inverted the pizza pan over the top of the circle and flipped the mat/pan over. Voila! The dough was in the pan without a bit of fuss. Ingredients
- 3/4 pound mild Italian sausage, uncased
- 6 large Vidalia onions, sliced thinly
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons margarine
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 13.8 ounce package of refrigerated pizza crust
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (for brushing)
- 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
Directions
- Brown the sausage in a large skillet, crumbling. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
- In the same skillet add the 3 tablespoons of olive oil and the margarine. When the margarine is melted add the onions and salt.
- Stir frequently over medium-high until the onions are caramelized.
- Meanwhile roll out your pizza dough to form a 12” circle. Transfer to a pizza pan (see tip above).
- Brush with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Top with the caramelized onions, then sausage, then cheese.
- Bake at 475 degrees for 25 minutes or until done in the center and crispy on the edges.
