Pizza para amantes de la carne

Ingredientes

• 1 ¾-2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
• 1 envelope Fleischmann's® Pizza Crust Yeast (OR Fleischmann's® RapidRise Yeast)
• 1 ½ teaspoons sugar
• ⅔ cup very warm water ((120° to 130°F))
• 3 tablespoons oil
• 1 cup pizza sauce
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• ½ pound ground Italian sausage
• 3 strips bacon (cooked and crumbled)
• ¼ cup pepperoni slices (or Canadian ham)
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Preparación

1. 1

   Brown Italian sausage in a skillet for 6-8 minutes over medium-high heat, sauteeing until sausage is browned and broken up into small chunks. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a bowl and set aside.

2. 2

   --- Prepare the crust ---

3. 3

   Preheat oven to 425°F.Combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. Knead on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. (If using RapidRise Yeast, let dough rest at this point for 10 minutes.)

4. 4

   Pat dough with floured hands to fill greased pizza pan or baking sheet. OR roll dough on a floured counter to 12-inch circle; place in greased pizza pan or baking sheet. Form a rim by pinching the edge of the dough.

5. 5

   --- Assemble the pizza ---

6. 6

   Spread pizza sauce over the crust leaving 1/2 inch around the edge. Sprinkle cheese over sauce. Add sausage, bacon, and pepperoni. Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top.

7. 7

   Bake in preheated oven on the lowest oven rack for 12-15 minutes until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown. Slice into pieces and serve.
