Pizza Stuffed Pizza Recipes

MEATY STUFFED PIZZA

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.
• For the dough:
• In a large mixing bowl, combine pizza crust mixes, Italian seasoning, and hot water. Stir about 20 times until a ball forms. Split ball in half and cover each with plastic wrap; set aside.
• For the filling:
• In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add the oil and cook ground beef and sausage, stirring frequently to break up clumps. Cook until no longer pink but not totally cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in mushrooms, olives, cheese and 1 cup of the marinara sauce; set aside.
• Unwrap dough and put onto 2 parchment lined baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal. Press out into 2 (12-inch) circles about 1/4-thick; pinch together any holes. Spoon the meat mixture into center of each dough round. Slide the second dough circle off the parchment to top the meat mixture. Crimp the edges together. Gently pat entire surface of pizza until flat. Slide pizza onto hot oiled grill. Cook, covered, for about 5 to 6 minutes per side.
• Warm the remaining marinara sauce in the microwave. Spoon some sauce on the plate and serve a hot slice of pizza on top.

CHICAGO STYLE STUFFED PIZZA

Steps:

• To Make Dough: In a small bowl, dissolve sugar in 1 cup warm water; in a separate small bowl combine the yeast, 1/2 cup flour, and 1/2 cup warm water. Mix together and let rest in bowl for about 20 minutes, until foamy.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl mix together remaining 2 1/2 cups flour with cornmeal and salt; remove half of this mixture from bowl and stir 1 cup sugar water into bowl. When well mixed, return second half of flour/cornmeal mixture to bowl and mix all together; then stir in yeast mixture. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 12 minutes. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise until doubled in volume.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). To Make Stuffing: In a large bowl combine the sausage, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, pepperoni, onion, bell pepper, oregano and garlic. Mix well.
• Press half of the dough in the bottom and up the sides of a lightly greased deep dish pan. Bake crust in preheated oven for 4 minutes, then add the stuffing mixture to the bottom crust and cover with top crust; seal edges together with fingers, and trim excess. Slit top crust to allow steam to vent during baking; top with tomato sauce.
• Bake on lower rack at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes, then cut and serve.

GRILLED STUFFED CRUST PIZZA

Steps:

• Pour the olive oil into an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet. Transfer the dough to the pan, turning to coat it with the oil. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until the dough fills about two-thirds of the baking sheet, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Slide your hands under the dough, lift and gently stretch it to fit the pan. (It's okay if it doesn't stretch to the corners.) For the final rise, loosely cover with plastic wrap and set aside until slightly puffy, 30 to 45 minutes.
• While the dough rises, preheat a grill for high heat - it needs to be 500 to 600 degrees F when covered.
• Stir the tomatoes, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a medium bowl until combined.
• When the dough has risen, place the cheese sticks all the way around the edges, leaving a half-inch border. Fold the dough up and over the cheese sticks until they are totally enclosed, then gently pinch the dough to seal, creating a stuffed crust. Stretch and pull the dough gently to fill the edges of the baking sheet. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan evenly over the dough, all the way to the edge. Then top with the sliced mozzarella, leaving the border exposed. Spoon the tomato mixture over the mozzarella, inside the border. Top with the pepperoni and remaining 3 tablespoons Parmesan.
• Put the pizza sheet directly on the grill grates, cover the grill and cook until the crust is lightly browned at the edges, about 15 minutes. Using a large metal spatula, slide the pizza directly onto the grill grates, cover and continue to cook until the crust is dark golden brown and the mozzarella is bubbly and lightly browned in spots, about 10 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and let sit for 10 minutes. Top with some basil leaves and cut into squares.

STUFFED PIZZA ROLLS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Unroll your pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough so it's about 8 x 12 inches. Cut it into 24 squares with a pizza cutter.
• Place cheese and desired toppings on each square. (Do not add marinara sauce, it's for dipping after they are cooked)
• After adding toppings to each dough square, carefully lift up each square and wrap the dough around the toppings.
• Pinch to make sure each ball is sealed shut and then place them seam side down on a lightly sprayed pie pan or square pan.
• Brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil.
• Sprinkle with the garlic, Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese (I mixed all of these together and then sprinkled on top).
• Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Keep an eye on them so they don't overcook. Serve warm with warmed marinara sauce on the side for dipping.

MOZZARELLA STUFFED CRUST PIZZA

Steps:

• You can make the pizza dough up to 48 hrs before you want to cook the pizza. Warm the milk in a saucepan until steaming but not boiling. In a large bowl combine the flour, yeast, sugar and 1 tsp salt. Add 1/2 tbsp oil to the milk and leave to cool until just warm -when you place a finger in the liquid it should feel body temperature. Pour the liquid into the bowl and either mix with a wooden spoon or food mixer, until the ingredients are well combined. Tip out onto your work surface and knead for 10 mins, or continue mixing in the mixer for 5-7 mins, until you have a smooth and elastic dough. Clean and oil the bowl, return the dough and cover with cling film. Leave somewhere warm to rise for 1-2 hrs, until doubled in size, or place in the fridge for up to 48 hrs.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Pour the remaining oil and passata into a saucepan and add the squashed garlic, oregano and a pinch of sugar. Season well and simmer for 5-10 mins, until the sauce is thick. Remove the garlic cloves and set aside until you're ready to assemble the pizza.
• If the dough has been chilled remove from the fridge and leave at room temperature for 1 hr. Dust the work surface with polenta and tip the dough onto it. Punch the dough down to knock out the air bubbles then shape into a disk. Roll out the dough to a pizza base, about 35cm wide. Dust a large baking sheet with polenta and place the dough on top, making sure the dough can move around freely. Use 125g of the mozzarella to create a ring around the outside edge of the pizza base, leaving 1/2cm gap between the edge. Brush a little water inside the mozzarella ring then fold over the outside edge to enclose the mozzarella and create a stuffed crust. Press firmly to stick the dough in place.
• Spoon the sauce over the middle of the base and top with the remaining mozzarella. Scatter with your chosen toppings (save any fresh herbs for scattering over at the end) and brush the stuffed crust with a little oil, then lightly cover with oiled cling film and set aside for 20-30 mins, until the dough has puffed up a little. Meanwhile heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9 with a large baking sheet on the middle shelf to heat up.
• When the oven is hot and the pizza dough has puffed up, quickly open the oven door and slide the pizza onto the hot tray. Shut the door and cook for 15-20 mins, or until bubbling and cooked through. Leave to cool for a few mins before eating.
