PIZZERIA PERFECT BLT PIZZA- MY OWN RECIPE



Pizzeria Perfect BLT Pizza- My Own Recipe image

I was challenged to make the perfect BLT pizza a few weeks ago. After looking at all of the recipes online, most were lacking a good sauce, and a good crust. Pizza without good sauce and crust just aren't worth making, in my book. The results were perfect the first go around... I wouldn't change a thing. The recipe is original...

Provided by Family Favorites

Categories     Pizza

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 recipe "perfect pizzeria pizza dough" or your own recipe
12 oz. maple pepper bacon, cut into 1 1/2 inch cuts. reserve 1 tb. plus 1 tsp. drippings. once cooked divided in half. (half is added before baking and half after baking.)
1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes, halved. reserve 1/2 cup for after baking.
1-2 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella or fresh mozzarella
sprinkle of yellow corn meal for pan, if desired
SAUCE INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup mayo, light or regular, doesn't matter
1 tb. olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. parsley
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. reserved bacon drippings

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare dough and let rise as per instructions. (This dough is very easy to make without the mess of having to knead it. Great, easy recipe.)
  • 2. Prepare sauce by mixing all ingredients thoroughly. Halve grape tomatoes and shred lettuce. Let come up to room temp. Reserve 1/2 cup grape tomatoes to top cooked pizza.
  • 3. Cut bacon in 1 1/2 inch chunks and fry until just before crisp, as you are going to be heating this one more time. Drain on paper towels. When the drippings have cooled slightly, add 1 tsp. drippings to sauce. Reserve an additional 1 TB. drippings.
  • 4. When dough is ready, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Use reserved 1 TB. bacon drippings to oil the pan in place of the olive oil that you may ordinarily use. (This little trick brings the smokey flavor of a BLT from the top of the pizza to the bottom.) Sprinkle with corn meal, if using. Spread out pizza dough with your hands.
  • 5. Top with sauce, then 1/2 of bacon, then cheddar and mozzarella, then 1 cup halved grape tomatoes, cut side up. (This keeps the juice in the skin instead of on the pizza.) Remember to reserve 1/2 cup grape tomatoes.
  • 6. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until done. (Optional tip: When I take my pizzas out of the oven, I combine a halved garlic clove and a few tablespoons of olive oil, microwave until warm and then brush on hot crust.) Add shredded lettuce, other half of bacon (warm in the micro for a few seconds) and reserved 1/2 cup tomatoes.
  • 7. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese and or red pepper flakes, if desired. Enjoy!

BLT SALAD PIZZA



BLT Salad Pizza image

This recipe is sponsored by Target. I'm a big fan of enjoying pizza with a salad on the side and I usually find myself putting the salad ON TOP of my pizza. For this recipe I bake the crust until nice and crispy so it can hold the salad without getting soggy. Then, I top it with mozzarella and Parmesan, and finish with a simple salad of crispy bacon, ripe tomatoes and fresh greens.
