UPSIDE-DOWN DEEP-DISH SKILLET PIZZA



Upside-Down Deep-Dish Skillet Pizza image

Provided by A Family Feast

Categories     pizza

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pizza dough, about 20 ounces (ours was 18.5 ounces)
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 Italian sausage links, removed from casing
Pinch red pepper flakes
5 medium mushrooms, cut into ¼" thick slices
4 slices green bell pepper, cut into ¼" thick slices
2 slices onion, ¼" thick
14 pepperoni slices
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
5 slices provolone cheese
½ cup pizza sauce (see here)

Steps:

  • Bring dough to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and place rack in top position in oven (opposite of a normal pizza cooking on a stone close to the bottom)
  • While dough is warming up, in a large 12"-14" non-stick oven proof fry pan*(see tip), heat one tablespoon of the oil over medium heat and cook sausage and pepper flakes until the meat has browned, breaking up as it cooks. Pour into a strainer over a bowl.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil and cook the mushrooms until browned. Remove to a plate or bowl leaving any fat in the pan.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil and place the pepper rings and onion slices in and cook for two minutes then turn off burner. Remove the peppers and onion to a plate and wipe any excess oil from the pan.
  • With the pan off the heat, build the upside-down pizza. Start by laying out the pepper and onion rings covering the bottom. Next fill in the holes with the pepperoni slices.
  • On top of that spread out the mushrooms then top with the drained sausage, again spreading to the edge.
  • Sprinkle on two tablespoons of the Parmesan next and then the mozzarella and finally the provolone, overlapping the slices as you go around the pan.
  • Spread the sauce over the provolone going almost to the edge.
  • On your cutting board, drizzle a tablespoon of the oil and spread the dough out to be slightly larger than the bottom of the pan, building a thick edge all the way around. Lift the dough and place over the sauce, stretching to go up the sides a bit and then tucked back in so no filling pops out.
  • Brush the remaining oil over the top of the dough (which is actually the bottom once flipped) and place on the upper rack and bake 20-25 minutes or until slightly golden.
  • Remove the pan, keeping the pot holder in place over the handle. Put an upside-down pizza pan over the pan top and with one quick motion, flip the pan over so that the pizza is sitting upright on the pizza pan. Place back in the oven for 15 more minutes to crisp up the edges. (As it bakes upside down, the sauce and any fat bakes into the crust edge (yummy) and when you invert it, it is soft and spongy and needs to crisp up).
  • When it comes out of the oven the second time, sprinkle on the remaining two tablespoons of Parmesan cheese, cut and serve.

Tips for Making Amy's Upside-Down Pizza

1. Choose the Right Toppings
When making an upside-down pizza, it's important to choose toppings that are hearty and flavorful. Consider adding vegetables such as bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes as well as diced ham, cooked sausage or grilled chicken. Combine flavors that complement each other, such as sausage and basil, or chicken and peppers. You can also add cheeses like mozzarella, cheddar or parmesan to enhance the taste of your pizza.
2. Use Homemade Crust
Homemade crust is the key to a delicious Amy's upside-down pizza. You can easily make a homemade crust by following simple recipes available online. Homemade crust will give your pizza a unique flavor and texture. It also ensures that the crust is crisp and sturdy enough to hold up the toppings.
3. Make Sure the Baking Dish is Greased
To prevent the pizza from sticking and to ensure an easy transfer, it's important to grease your baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray. Coat the bottom and sides of the dish completely, making sure no area is left untouched. This will make it easy to remove the pizza from the dish once it's finished cooking.
4. Spread the Toppings Evenly
When adding toppings, it's important to spread them evenly across the bottom of the baking dish. This ensures that every bite has a mix of flavors and textures. Use a fork or spatula to spread out the toppings once you have added them to the dish.
5. Roll the Crust Evenly
When rolling out the dough for the crust, make sure it's even and well rolled. This will ensure that the dough cooks evenly and crisps up nicely. If the crust is too thin or thick in some areas, it may not cook evenly and become soggy. Make sure there are no air pockets by rolling the dough straight and smoothly.
6. Let the Pizza Rest Before Serving
Before slicing and serving the pizza, it's crucial to let it rest for about 5 to 10 minutes. This allows the toppings to settle, and the crust to cool slightly. You can also sprinkle some grated cheese and fresh herbs like basil, oregano or thyme before serving.
7. Experiment with Different Toppings
One of the best things about making an upside-down pizza is that you can experiment with different toppings. Try adding different vegetables, meats, and cheeses to create your unique flavor. You can also add ingredients like pesto, marinara sauce, or Alfredo sauce to switch up the flavor profile.
8. Enjoy it With Friends and Family
The best part of cooking is sharing your creations with friends and family. Amy's upside-down pizza is a fun and tasty dish to share with others. Whip up a batch for a dinner party, potluck, or game night.

Conclusion

Amy's upside-down pizza is a delicious twist on traditional pizza that is easy to make and customize. Follow the tips mentioned above to ensure a delicious, crispy, and flavorful pizza. Experiment with different toppings, and enjoy this delicious dish with your loved ones.
