Pesto Broccoli Rabe Spicy Sausage Pizza
Ingredients
- 8 oz spicy Italian sausages chicken turkey or pork
- 8 oz broccoli rabe trimmed
- ½ lb pizza dough
- 1 cup basil pesto homemade store bought
- 3-4 pieces pitted olives
- 1½ cup fresh mozzarella bufula thinly sliced or shredded
- 2-3 tbsp fresh microgreens
- chili flakes as needed
Instructions
- Heat oven to 450°F.
- Push the sausage meat out of the casing into a warm pan. Break them up with a wooden spoon and brown them small pieces. Drain and set aside.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, blanch the broccoli rabe for 1-2 minutes until they’re slightly wilted. Chop the broccoli into half or smaller pieces.
- Warm olive oil on a pan and sauté the broccoli for 1-2 minutes.
- Stretch out the pizza dough and lay it on a pizza stone or onto a lightly-oiled baking sheet.
- Spread a thin layer of pesto to cover the pizza surface. Evenly place the meat and broccoli rabe. Next, cheese it up. Bake at 450°F for about 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden around the edges and cheese is bubbly n melted.
- Garnish with thinly sliced olives, chili flakes and optional broccoli sprouts and dig in!
