Ingredients
- 1 pound pizza dough or your favorite pizza dough, thin crust
- 15 lices pepperoni
- 12 ounces mozzarella cheese cut into 15 cubes
- 15 lices chorizo or substitute with bold pepperoni, "extra"
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon oregano dried
- ½ teaspoon thyme dried
- ½ teaspoon basil dried
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped, fresh
- basil leaves optional garnish, fresh
- 1 cup pizza sauce (or your own favorite pizza sauce), for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F and lightly grease a 10" oven-safe baking dish or skillet.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out pizza dough to ¼" thickness.
- Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 15 equal squares.
- Place a pepperoni slice in center of each dough square, then top with a mozzarella cube.
- Enclose the filling by bringing the edges of the dough together, forming small balls or rounds. Ensure the filling is sealed inside the dough.
- Arrange assembled pizza bites in prepared dish, with a little space in between each one. Tuck a slice of chorizo extra between each pizza bite.
- In a small bowl, mix olive oil with dried oregano, thyme, and basil, plus garlic powder and sea salt. Brush the mixture over the top of pizza bites.
- Sprinkle Parmesan evenly over the tops of pizza bites.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden.
- Remove pizza bites from oven and sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top. Turn off the oven, then put the pizza bites back in for 3-4 minutes, or until the mozzarella is melty to your liking.
- Remove pizza bites from oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
- Serve pizza bites hot with pizza sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
