Bacon and Brussels Sprouts Pizza
- 6 slices Bacon, Chopped, Cooked Until Just Slightly Crisp, Reserve Bacon Grease
- 7 whole Brussels Sprouts, Sliced In Half
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 whole Batch Of Your Favorite Pizza Dough
- 1 cup Your Favorite Pizza Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Cracked Black Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Italian Seasoning
- 2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- 13 cups Thinly Sliced Red Onion
- Start by heating a large cast iron skillet on medium heat.
- Add the chopped bacon and cook just until the bacon is just slightly crisp, as we will finish cooking the bacon on the pizza in the oven.
- Pour the bacon grease into a bowl and set it aside.
- Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel and be careful not to burn yourself.
- Return the skillet to the stove and place it back on medium heat.
- Spoon a couple of tablespoons of the reserved bacon grease into the skillet, and then add the Brussels sprouts.
- Season with a bit of salt, and cook on medium heat just until slightly tender.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Remove the Brussels sprouts and wipe out the skillet once more time.
- Drizzle in more of the bacon grease into the skillet.
- Take pizza dough and gently stretch it into the skillet.
- Spread the pizza sauce onto the dough, season with the cracked black pepper, salt, and Italian seasoning.
- Top with the mozzarella cheese, lay the Brussels sprouts on top, and shower with the bacon.
- Lay the red onion on top as well.
- Place the skillet in preheated oven, and cook for about 20 minutes or until the top is nice and melted.
- Using a spatula, lift the pizza out of the skillet, and slice and serve.
- The flavor combination is awesome.
- Its everything you expect with the bacon and Brussels sprouts but in pizza form.
- The red onion and the tomato sauce really add that perfect punch to the pizza as well, and if you have never made pizza in a cast iron skillet before, I highly recommend it.
- Hope you enjoy!
