A New Spin On Pizza Recipe

	Dollhead / All my dishes 6 months ago I took my usual pizza to a whole new level by broiling the crust first (similar to a "boboli") and the results are quite similar to an outdoor grilled pizza both in taste & technique. I will NEVER bake a pizza again! This technique also works for f... More Prep:10m Cook:10m Servings:8	Dollhead

Ingredients

I took my usual pizza crust recipe & rolled it to 1/4" thick.

Using a perforated pizza pan, I sprayed it with a "PAM" type stuff and laid my dough on it. I turned on my oven broiler to LOW, and my oven rack was about 3" from heat source.

I slid my pan with the dough under the broiler for a few minutes until it just began to brown.

I pulled the pan out, waited a minute or two and then I flipped the crust over on the pan and slid it under the broiler again.

I let it brown slightly (less than the other side) then I pulled crust from the oven, dressed the pizza with sauce, veggies and cheeses.

I put it under the broiler again and let it cook until the cheese began to brown & it looked done.

This is similar to how you would cook a pizza on your BBQ outdoors.

Directions

I am sure this doesn't sound like a startling revelation to many of you seasoned cooks out there, but making my pizza this way totally altered the taste of the crust and its toppings-for us at least.

Something about being under the broiler really makes the flavors sing, and it's got to be way more energy efficient using a broiler on low, than waiting for my oven to heat to 500° like I used to do!!

Yes, you can use broiler on HIGH setting, but you better watch it close cuz It will burn fast.

Try it and see what you think.
