Pizza Pigs in Blankets
- 12 small Italian sausage links (about 3 inches each)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 pound refrigerated pizza dough, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- Warmed marinara sauce, for dipping
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Toss the sausages with 1 tablespoon olive oil on a baking sheet and bake, turning the sausages halfway through, until golden brown and fully cooked, about 35 minutes.
- Line another baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the rosemary and oregano in a small bowl; set aside.
- Roll out the pizza dough into a 6-by-12-inch rectangle, then cut the dough crosswise into twelve 1-inch-wide strips.
- Wrap a strip of dough around each sausage and set on the prepared baking sheet with the ends of the dough on the bottom.
- Brush with the herb oil and sprinkle with the mozzarella and parmesan.
- Bake until the dough is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Serve with marinara sauce.
