By á-30

Ingredients

• Pizza Dough
• 1 cup Tomato Sauce
• 1/2 pound smoked chorizo sausage, thinly sliced
• 8 ounces mozzarella, grated

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 500?F. Lightly grease two baking sheets.
†
One at a time, pull and gently stretch each pizza dough portion into a 6-inch round. Put each piece of dough on a greased baking sheet. Pat each out to a 10- to 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Spread 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce on each round, leaving a 1-inch border. Arrange the chorizo on top of the sauce and top with a thin layer of the cheese.
†
Bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly, about 20 minutes, switching the pans from top to bottom after 10 minutes.
†
Serve immediately.
