Provided by Sonja Overhiser

Categories     Main Dish

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ball Best Pizza Dough (or Thin Crust Dough)
8 ounces frozen spinach
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
Kosher salt
Fresh ground black pepper
1 handful sliced red onion
1/2 jarred roasted red pepper (or fresh red bell pepper), diced
1/2 small garlic clove (1/4 teaspoon minced)
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Follow the Best Pizza Dough or Thin Crust Dough recipe to prepare the dough. (This takes about 15 minutes to make and 45 minutes to rest.)
  • Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 500°F. OR preheat your pizza oven (here's the pizza oven we use).
  • Run the spinach under warm water in a strainer, then squeeze out as much water as possible so that it has a dry, crumbly texture. Mix it in a bowl with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt, the garlic powder and the oregano.
  • Mince the garlic. In a small bowl, mix the ricotta with the kosher salt, fresh ground pepper and minced garlic. Thinly slice the red onion, and dice the roasted red pepper.
  • When the oven is ready, dust a pizza peel with cornmeal or semolina flour. (If you don't have a pizza peel, you can use a rimless baking sheet or the back of a rimmed baking sheet. But a pizza peel is well worth the investment!) Stretch the dough into a circle; see How to Stretch Pizza Dough for instructions. Then gently place the dough onto the pizza peel.
  • Spread the seasoned ricotta onto the dough. Top with the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, spinach, red onion, and red pepper.
  • Use the pizza peel to carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone. Bake the pizza until the cheese and crust are nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes in the oven (or 1 minute in a pizza oven). Slice into pieces and serve immediately.

Categories     Main Course     Pizza

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 easy pizza dough (or your fav dough)
1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1-2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
10oz (280 grams) fresh baby spinach, washed and drained
¼ teaspoon fine salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper, plus more to serve
1 (4oz/125 grams) whole-milk mozzarella in water(or from ½ to ⅓ cup shredded firm mozzarella)
2-3oz (70 grams) feta cheese (approx ⅓ cup if you buy crumbled feta)
½ Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
¼ Teaspoon dried chili flakes

Steps:

  • Follow the easy no-knead pizza recipe through step 5, including shaping the pizza and preheating the oven.
  • Cook the spinach: heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and cook for 20 seconds until light golden. Add spinach, a handful at a time, and sauté until it has wilted. The amount of greens looks huge, but it wilt in less than 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • Prepare the cheese: crumble the block of feta using your fingers and, if you use fresh mozzarella ball in water, cut it into ½ inch thick pieces. If it releases water, you may want to dab the mozzarella with the paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  • Shape the dough: when the dough is ready follow step 5, place the dough on a parchment paper sheet and starting from the center, gently press it out with your fingers until you get approx a 9×13 inch pizza. Then gently place the dough onto a pizza peel or onto the back of a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Add the topping: scatter mozzarella, feta and spinach evenly on the top of the pizza. Sprinkle some fine salt on top and little drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (optional).
  • Bake the pizza: make sure the oven is hot and use the pizza peel to carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone. Bake the pizza until the cheese and crust are nicely browned, approx 15 minutes. Each oven is different, keep an eye on it (e.g. in a forced fan oven it will take about 8-10 minutes).
  • Serve: allow the pizza to cool for a minute or two before serving and drizzle with good-quality extra virgin olive oil, also garlic oil would be nice. Slice and serve immediately.

DEEP DISH SPINACH AND MOZZARELLA PIZZA



Deep Dish Spinach and Mozzarella Pizza image

From the book "Pizza" which has great recipes for various types of pizza. Deep dish spinach pizza is what I think of when I think "Chicago-style" and it is so yummy! This recipe uses the crust and sauce recipes from the same book, also posted by me. (Recipe #171224 and Recipe #171225)

Provided by lucid501

Categories     Spinach

Time 1h

Yield 1 14, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
chicago style deep dish pizza dough (Chicago Style Deep-Dish Pizza Dough)
1 1/4 lbs low-moisture mozzarella cheese, thickly sliced
10 ounces baby spinach leaves, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
3 1/2 cups tomato sauce (Tomato Sauce for Chicago Style Pizza)
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack on the second-lowest level in the oven and place a baking stone, if using one, on the rack. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Brush a 14 inch round deep-dish pizza pan with the olive oil. Starting in the middle and using your fingertips. press the dough evenly to cover the bottom and about 2 inches up the sides of the pan. Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in the pan for 15-20 minutes.
  • To assemble the pizza, lightly press the dough up the sides of the pan if it has slid back down. Lay half of the mozzarella slices over the pizza dough, overlapping to cover the dough completely.
  • Toss the spinach with the garlic and a few grindings of pepper. Arrange the spinach mixture over the mozzarella. Arrange the rest of the mozzarella over the spinach. Ladle the tomato sauce evenly over the mozzarella. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top of the sauce.
  • Place the pizza in the oven on the rack or baking stone and reduce the temperature to 450 degrees F. (Work quickly so the oven temperature doesn't drop too much). Bake the pizza until the crust is crisp and a deep golden brown, and the cheese is golden, about 30 minutes. Remove the pizza from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Use a knife to loosen the crust from the sides of the pan.
  • Cut the pizza into large wedges and then slide a metal spatula until the bottom crust to remove and lift out the wedges. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach.
  • Squeeze out the excess moisture from the spinach. This will prevent the pizza from becoming soggy.
  • Use a good quality mozzarella cheese. Fresh mozzarella cheese will melt smoothly and evenly.
  • Don't overcook the pizza. The pizza is done when the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  • Serve the pizza hot. Spinach dip mozzarella pizza is best enjoyed hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Spinach dip mozzarella pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. It's perfect for parties or potlucks. With its creamy spinach dip filling, melted mozzarella cheese, and crispy crust, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
