Unos Chicken Spinoccoli Copycat Recipes

UNO DEEP DISH PIZZA

Steps:

• Cook sausage until browned and crumbly.
• Generously brush a heavy 10-inch round cake or springform pan with olive oil or cooking spray.
• In a large mixer bowl, sprinkle yeast into warm water and stir until yeast is dissolved.
• Add 1½ cups of the flour, ⅓ cup oil, and ½ teaspoon salt. Beat at low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly.
• Beat for 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl often. Add in as much of the remaining flour as you can while beating the dough.
• Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place until double. Punch down. Let rest 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Place the dough into the pan. Using oiled hands, spread dough evenly over the bottom and partially up sides of the pan.
• Cover the pan and let the dough rise until nearly double, about 30 minutes.
• Arrange cheese slices in a ¼-inch thick layer on dough.
• Gently press the sausage on the cheese.
• Using your hands, gently crush tomatoes into small pieces over the sausage.
• Sprinkle oregano, basil, and Parmesan on top.
• Bake at 500 degrees for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the edge of the crust is crisp and golden brown.
• If desired, sprinkle the pizza with sliced mushrooms or chopped green pepper during the last few minutes of baking time.
• Let the pizza stand 5 to 10 minutes before cutting.
