Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 pound store-bought pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.
Season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir well to combine. Remove from heat and allow the beef to cool slightly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle, approximately 12x16 inches.
Spread the cooked beef mixture evenly over one half of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border along the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling, aligning the edges. Press the edges together to seal, and crimp with a fork for a decorative finish.
Brush the top of the foldover with the beaten egg to create a golden, shiny crust. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top, if desired.
Carefully transfer the foldover to the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove the foldover from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into portions. Serve warm and enjoy!
