Ingredients:
– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 small onion, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
– 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
– 1/2 cup tomato sauce
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– Toppings of your choice (such as sliced tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, and mustard)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Once the beef is halfway cooked, add the chopped onion and garlic. Continue to cook until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent.
3. Season the beef mixture with salt, pepper, oregano, and smoked paprika. Stir well to incorporate the seasonings evenly. Remove the skillet from heat and set it aside.
4. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella over the sauce.
6. Spoon the cooked beef mixture on top of the mozzarella layer, spreading it out to cover the pizza evenly. Add your favorite toppings over the beef.
7. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and the grated Parmesan cheese over the toppings.
8. Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
9. Once done, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy the unique flavors of the Impossible Hamburger Pizza!
