Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 2 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 package rapid-rise yeast
- 2 tsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 c. water
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 tsp. cornmeal
- 1 can tomato sauce
- 1 1/2 c. fully cooked ground seasoned Mexican-style beef (see Note)
- 1 c. preshredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 c. thinly sliced iceberg lettuce
- 1 c. chopped tomatoes
- 1 small ripe avocado
- 1/2 c. coarsely crushed tortilla chips
Instructions
- In food processor, process 1 3/4 cups flour, the yeast, sugar, and salt 5 seconds.
- Heat water and 2 tablespoons oil in a saucepan or microwave until it registers 120 °F to 130 °F on an instant-read thermometer.
- With processor running, add water mixture; process to mix. Uncover processor and add remaining 1 cup flour; process until mixture forms a ball, adding more flour if needed, 1 teaspoon at a time. Continue processing 1 minute to knead dough (see Note).
- Place dough on a lightly floured surface, cover with a bowl and let rest 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile place 1 rack on lowest rungs of oven. Heat to 450 °F. Have ready a 12-inch round pizza pan (see For a Really Crisp Crust, right). Brush pan with oil; sprinkle with cornmeal.
- Cut dough in half. On a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin, roll dough into a rough circle, then, with fingers, stretch dough to a 12-inch round.
- Lift to prepared pan. Press some dough to edges to form a thicker rim. Loosely cover pan with plastic wrap; let dough rise 20 minutes. Prick crust with a fork; brush rim with oil.
- Bake 8 minutes or just until edges are pale golden.
- Spread crust with tomato sauce; sprinkle with beef then cheese.
- Bake on low oven rack 8 to 12 minutes until crust browns and cheese melts.
- Remove from oven; top with remaining ingredients.
