It's pizza with a mexican stuffed crust. You get a little bit of Italy and finish with Mexicanflare. This is very good and so versitile. Could use chicken or beef, but pork is the best. Do not limit your self on the cheese either. There is never too much cheese right? Cut out steps and use left over meat from another meal.

How To Make pizza with pork and green chili stuffed crust.

  • 1
    Preheat oven 425 F In a hot skillet with a little olive oil cook pork and bacon until half way done. Add smashed garlic cloves and continue to cook until the bacon is alittle crisp and pork is done. Drain on paper towel. Chop mixture into small pieces, similar to ground beef. but not too small.
  • 2
    In a large bowl, combine meat mixture, cheddar cheese, green chilies, cumin, corinander, onion powder and salt and pepper. Set a side.
  • 3
    In a small sauce pan, heat olive oil and cook minced garlic until fragrant. Add tomatoes, the reserved green chili juice, italian seasonings, oregano, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chipotle chili powder. Simmer until almost all juices are gone. Add red wine vinegar. At this point I use a potatoe masher to make a more smoother sauce. With a little bit of tomato chunks. Cook more if there is too much liquid. Set aside.

    Spread the pizza dough on to a pizza pan, leaving a little extra on the edge. Spoon pork mixture one inch away from edge of dough. Fold the edge of the dough over the pork mixture. Make sure that all is covered and is well sealed.
