An idea from Food Network that is perfect for condo or apartment cooking! Jeff Morrow made these on The Kitchen; I’ve noticed other recipes on the internet. His version starts in a skillet on top of the stove in order to begin crisping the tortilla; others add several tortillas to a baking sheet which allows one to bake multiple tortillas at a time. The baking sheet could be heated in the oven ahead of time in order to create the extra crisping effect.
I made them one at a time in the skillet. Our versions included:
Sausage & onion on pesto with Cheddar
Sausage & onion on refried beans with Mexican cheese
Sausage & onion on pizza sauce with artichokes & mozzarella
So easy, quick and versatile!
Tortilla Pizza
Olive oil
Flour tortillas
Toppings of your choice:
Sauces: tomato, pesto, refried beans
Protein: cooked sausage, hamburger, chicken; pepperoni, ham, etc.
Dairy: mozzarella, Mexican cheese, Cheddar, Parmesan, etc.
Veggies: sliced onions (raw, sautéed or carmelized), mushrooms, tomatoes, artichokes, olives, etc.
Seasonings: dried Italian seasoning, basil, chili flakes, etc.
- Adjust an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the broiler to high.
- Drizzle a little oil into a large nonstick, oven-proof skillet set on medium heat. Add a tortilla—this will start crisping the bottom of the tortilla before it goes in the oven.
- Almost immediately, build the pizza right in the pan, starting with sauce and then adding other items of your choice.
- Transfer the skillet to the broiler and cook until the cheese is golden brown and melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
