WHITE BROCCOLINI & SAUSAGE PIZZA Recipe

Preparation:

1. Make or purchase your favorite pizza dough. Although it’s not difficult to make, we’ll often buy our dough from our local pizzeria or bakery. It’s inexpensive, super easy, and a great way to support local businesses. If your dough is frozen, be sure to unthaw it in the fridge overnight before warming it up to room temperature for 30 minutes.
2. Heat the oven to 500 degrees F or as high as your oven will go. Use a pizza stone if you have one, otherwise a pizza pan or thick pan will do.
3. Dust your hands in flour, and separate dough into 2-3 smaller balls.
4. Carefully stretch out dough balls until they’re nice and thin. Perfect circles are nice, but we encourage all different shapes of pizza.
5. Sprinkle cornmeal on a pizza peel or cutting board, then transfer one prepared pizza dough round to it. The corn meal will allow you to easily slide your pizza into the oven like a pro.
6. Brush Sautéed Garlic Olive Oil on dough, making sure to evenly coat the outer 1 inch that will become the crust.
7. Using the back of a spoon, apply a thin layer of crème fraîche to the dough and lightly season with salt and pepper.
8. Sprinkle on cheese and red pepper flakes.
9. Space broccolini out across the pizza and fill in with pre-cooked chicken sausage cut on a diagonal.
10. Bake pizza in the oven, one at a time, until the crust is browned and the cheese begins to brown, about 10 minutes.
11. Remove from oven, slice and serve.
