Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound pizza dough
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
On a floured surface, stretch and roll out the pizza dough to fit a large pizza pan or baking sheet. Place the dough on the prepared pan.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and green bell pepper, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine and the mixture to thicken.
Spoon the Sloppy Joe mixture evenly over the prepared pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the Sloppy Joe mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Slice and serve while hot. Enjoy your Cheesy Sloppy Joe Pizza!
