Sausage, Peppers, & Onions (plus artichoke!) Naan Pizza
Well, isn’t this just a fun little flavor explosion of a recipe mashup. Sausage, Peppers, & Onions (plus artichoke!) Naan Pizza drops a classic flavor combo onto a chewy flatbread crust, then punches everything up with tangy artichokes and smooth mozzarella.
Servings 4
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon olive oil divided
- 1 red bell pepper sliced into thin strips
- ½ of a medium yellow onion sliced
- 14 oz smoked sausage or Polska kielbasa sliced into coins
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic about four cloves
- ½ of a 12 oz jar of marinated artichoke hearts chopped
- 8 oz shredded mozzarella
- 4 pieces of naan
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice the pepper and onion.
- While you’re cutting your onion, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the pepper and onion to the pan and saute for five minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the pepper and onion are sauteing, slice the sausage into coins and chop your garlic and artichokes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice the pepper and onion.
- While you’re cutting your onion, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the pepper and onion to the pan and saute for five minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the pepper and onion are sauteing, slice the sausage into coins and chop your garlic and artichokes.
- Add the sausage and garlic to the skillet along with the pepper and onion and saute for another five minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the artichokes and turn off the heat under the pan.
- While the sausage is browning, shred the mozzarella (if not using pre-shredded). Place the naan (bubbly side up) on two rimmed baking sheets, and brush each piece lightly with olive oil.
- Top the naan with shredded mozzarella, then add the sauteed sausage & veggies.
- Bake your naan pizzas at 400 degrees for 10 minutes (switching pans between oven racks halfway through), or until cheese is melted and naan is browned at the edges.
Notes
I made my naan pizza without sauce today, because I wanted just to highlight the flavors of the sausage & veggies sans tomato. If desired, you can use pizza sauce (or a doctored up can of tomato sauce) rather than simply brushing the naan with olive oil.
