Mexican Meatza Recipes

MEXICAN MEATZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F.
• Mix the pork, beef, and Chorizo together in a large bowl. Pat out into a rimmed baking sheet to a uniform thickness, or standard-size cookie sheet or another shallow, pushing it up the sides slightly to form a rim. Over the surface of the meat spread the enchilada sauce evenly.
• Rotating the pan once halfway through bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through. Carefully pour off any liquid and fat in the pan and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• Scatter the lettuce, tomato, cheese, and olives over the surface of the meatza. Cut into squares and serve with the salsa.

• Bake in the preheated oven until meat is no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain grease.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler.
• Sprinkle 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese over baked meat, followed by tomato sauce in an even layer. Sprinkle another 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese over the sauce and top with slices of pepperoni. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese over pizza.
