TOMATO, BACON, & BLUE CHEESE PIZZA



Tomato, Bacon, & Blue Cheese Pizza image

For our basic pizza dough we most often use Zoe and Jeff of Bread in 5's basic dough. It is a great all around dough to have in the fridge. Timing is based on having a pre-made dough in the fridge. Feel free to use your own favorite dough recipe or check out Zoe and Jeff's book dedicated to pizzas and flatbreads for specialized dough recipes. BTW - we had a great time filming and producing the video promo for that book. They are great people and the doughs are fantastic.Makes one 10" pizza.

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 oz. (285 g) Pizza dough
1/3 cup (80ml) Cherry Tomatoes (, sliced in half)
2 Tablespoons (30 ml) Balsamic Vinegar
2 Tablespoons (30 ml) Olive Oil
4 slices thick cut Bacon
1/4 cups (60 ml) Tomato Sauce
1/4 cups (30 g) crumbled Blue Cheese
1/2 cups (55 g) grated Provolone (, or cheese of choice)
Olive Oil for brushing edge of crust
8-10 fresh Basil leaves (, tearing larger leaves into 1/2 or 1/4's)

Steps:

  • For best results, use a baking stone. Preheated oven and baking stone at 550°F for 20-30 minutes.
  • If dough is coming out of the fridge, pinch off a ball of dough approx. 10 oz in weight (or somewhere in between a baseball and softball size). On a floured surface, shape ball into disk approx. 1 1/2" thick. Set dough aside on floured surface to relax and warm up for 20 minutes as you prep the rest of the ingredients.
  • Combine sliced tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil in a small bowl. Gently toss tomatoes to completely coat then set aside to marinate while you prep the rest of the toppings.
  • Cook bacon in a saute pan until light golden on each side. Blot on paper towels and after it cools enough to handle, slice into 1" long pieces. Set aside.
  • Pizza dough should now be soft and pillowy. On a floured surface, flour both sides of dough disk, then using your fingers rotate and push out the dough from the center to stretch it, leaving the outer rim untouched. Stretch to about a 7-8" circle.
  • Resting the dough on the tops of your hands, continue to circle and and gently stretch dough to finish stretching crust to about 10". Make sure to keep the rim thicker than the center. (If dough starts to toughen and spring back too much while working it, allow it to rest for a few minutes so the dough will relax and soften.)
  • Brush top and edges of the pizza dough with a light coat of olive oil. Place on a floured pizza peel (or on a lightly oiled sheet pan if not cooking on a baking stone) and adjust shape back to a circle.
  • Gently spread a light layer of tomato sauce over dough circle, leaving outer 3/4" untouched. Layer on bacon. Spread on cheeses. (Occasionally as you add toppings, give pizza peel a little shake to make sure dough isn't sticking to it. If it is, gently lift edges, toss a little flour underneath, and shake peel until dough is floating again.)
  • Layer tomato halves, cut side up (so center juices will bake into the tomato and not into your crust, making the pizza crust too wet). Keep balsamic mix to sprinkle on pizza after baking.
  • Slide pizza onto baking stone and bake for 8-10 minutes or until crust is golden and a touch charred in places. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Drizzle a bit of the balsamic mix over pizza. Sprinkle basil leaves over pizza. Slice and serve.

THREE-CHEESE BACON PIZZA



Three-Cheese Bacon Pizza image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 (makes 2 pies)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound prepared pizza dough, at room temperature
All-purpose flour, for dusting
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, grated
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Put a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 475 degrees F for at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out the dough into a 9-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Lightly dust a pizza peel or another inverted baking sheet with flour; lay the round of dough on top and set aside. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring, until crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Combine the tomato sauce, olive oil, garlic and oregano in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Slide the dough directly onto the hot stone or baking sheet and bake until lightly golden and puffy, about 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, then carefully slice the crust in half horizontally with a serrated knife to make 2 thin crusts. Turn the crusts cut-side up. Spread with the sauce mixture, then top evenly with the mozzarella, cheddar and bacon. Slide the pizzas back onto the hot stone or baking sheet; bake until the cheese melts and the crust is golden, about 8 more minutes. Sprinkle with the parmesan.

  • When the pizza is ready, remove, cut into pieces and add the dressed lettuce to each piece. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust: Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible before baking the pizza. This will help create a crispy, golden-brown crust.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your pizza will taste. Look for ripe tomatoes, flavorful bacon, and fresh herbs.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings: Too many toppings can make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook evenly. Stick to a few simple toppings that you love.
  • Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will ensure that the pizza is cooked through and delicious.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving: This will help the cheese set and prevent the toppings from sliding off.

Conclusion:

This bacon, olive, and tomato pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy crust, flavorful toppings, and gooey cheese, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
