HAWAIIAN PIZZA
Prep: 10 min. Cook: 15 min. Serving: 1 lg. pizza
Ingredients
- 16 ounces pizza dough
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce (see below)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 6 oz diced ham
- 4 strips bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 8oz can pineapple, drained and diced
- Flour for rolling and shaping dough
Sauce
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce (no salt)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon granulated onion
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat oven to 500°F.
If you are using a pizza stone, preheat it in the oven for at least 20 minutes.
If you are using the sauce recipe, stir together the ingredients.
The sauce recipe makes just enough for one large pizza.
You can easily double it if you are making more than one pizza.
Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface.
If it's hard to roll, let it rest for 5 minutes so it can come to room temperature.
For a large pizza, I like to roll my dough into about a 14-inch diameter circle.
Transfer the dough to a lightly dusted pizza peel.
Alternatively, fit it into a large cast-iron.
Add sauce in a light layer all over the pizza, leaving about 1/4-inch crust around the edges.
Top with cheese. Spread ham, bacon and pineapple over the top.
If you're using a pizza stone, carefully slide pizza into the center of the pizza stone.
Cook for 6 minutes, then rotate the pizza halfway so it cooks evenly.
Cook for another 6-8 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and charred in spots.
If you're using a skillet, press the dough into a cast iron skillet and add toppings.
Preheat the skillet over hight heat burner for 2 minutes and the the crust cooking.
Transfer to a 500˚F oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Use pizza peel to slide pizza out onto a cutting board.
Let the pizza rest for a minute and slice into pieces.
Serve while warm with a side salad.

Yes to PineappleThis is not up for debate. Pineapple belongs on pizza! I do wish the steps were more clear though.
