TACO PIZZA

Steps:

• Add the water, salt, oil, flour and yeast to your bread machine in the order listed. Select the dough cycle. Check your dough after it has been mixing a few minutes. If it is too dry and not mixing, add water 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is mixing and has a nice dough consistency. You want the dough to be pliable but not sticky.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tomato paste, water, and 3/4 of the package of taco seasoning mix. Stir in chili powder and cayenne pepper; set aside. In another bowl, mix refried beans, salsa, and onion; set aside. In a large skillet, cook ground beef until evenly brown; drain excess fat. Season with the remaining 1/4 package of taco seasoning and a small amount of water. Simmer a few minutes, then remove from heat.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• When the dough cycle is finished, remove the dough from the machine. Divide the dough in half, and pat into two 12 inch pans. Spread a layer of the bean mixture on, then a layer of the tomato mixture. Sprinkle with seasoned beef and top with cheddar cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted. Turn pizzas halfway through baking.

TACO PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 550 degrees F with a pizza stone in the oven.
• To make the taco pizza, we start with stretching a portion of Pizza dough over a 12-inch pizza pan. Make sure to dust your pan with semolina to keep it from sticking. Stretch the dough slightly larger than the pan to allow yourself an edge to roll your crust. Then apply 1/2 cup of the Salsa and spread evenly. Sprinkle the mozzarella and 1 ounce of the Cheddar-Jack evenly across the salsa. (Keep the cheese within the pan so that you can roll your crust.) Roll the border of un-topped dough into a crust and place in the oven. Spin the pizza frequently to insure even cooking; it should take 5 to 6 minutes to cook. Once the crust is golden brown, gently slide it off the pan and onto the stone to brown the bottom. This should take about 30 seconds to a minute. Remove from the oven and place back on the pizza pan. Cut the pizza into 6 slices. Then top in this order: crushed tortillas, taco beef, lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, remaining 1 ounce Cheddar-Jack cheese, jalapeños, cilantro.
• Start by placing the flour, brown sugar, yeast and salt in a stand mixer and mix for approximately 3 minutes. You then slowly add the water around the edges, then the oil. Mix for 16 to 18 minutes. Once everything is mixed remove the dough, divide into 12-ounce portions, loosely cover and store in the fridge for 48 hours to allow to rise properly.
• Combine the garlic, jalapeños, bell pepper, white onion, cilantro, water, chili powder, granulated garlic, red pepper flakes, cumin, black pepper, salt and lime juice in a food processor and run until has a slightly chunky consistency.

Add the crushed tomatoes and oregano. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened and reduced to about 1 cup, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the beef and season with a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin and garlic powder and cook, stirring, until combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the beef mixture to a small bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly sprinkle the skillet with flour and immediately add the pizza dough, stretching it as needed to completely cover the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the dough starts to puff slightly, about 2 minutes. Spoon the tomato sauce mixture all over the dough and spoon the beef mixture on top. Sprinkle with the cheddar, top with the red onion, then sprinkle with the mozzarella. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the crust is browned around the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool slightly.
