Time 5m

Yield 1 pizza, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 burrito-size flour tortilla
1/2 tomatoes, thinly sliced (remove seeds and most of the liquid to help insure a crispy crust)
1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced (jarred is fine)
4 -10 basil leaves
2 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
1 dash olive oil (can also use peppered flavored oil)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Place cast iron skillet, that has been slightly brushed with olive oil, (or other heavy metaled oven proof pan) in oven for a few minutes to heat.
  • Meanwhile, assemble pizza using tortilla as the base, top with tomatoes, garlic, cheese, basil leaves (can leave leaves whole, or julienne). I top with basil last because I love crispy basil. If you don't like basil this way, put under the cheese.
  • Place tortilla in hot skillet. It should sizzle. Cook until done (mine takes about 8-10 minutes).
