The ultimate busy weeknight meal has got to be pizza. We order it so much that it is basically a weekly tradition. Now we have tried many homemade pizza recipes, but the only recipe that compares to restaurant quality is this one pan deep dish pizza.
We kept the recipe simple by using pre-made refrigerated pizza dough. To make the dough flaky I rolled out the dough, smothered it with butter, then folded it up and refrigerated it while I chopped the toppings.
For the marinara sauce, I used the sauce recipe from this skillet lasagna recipe. I didn't bother cooking it in a saucepan, I just mixed all the ingredients up in a bowl and poured it over the pizza. The seasoning blended while it cooked, so no needed to dirty another pot.
The key to keeping the crust from getting soggy is to layer the crust with mozzarella cheese before adding the sauce and toppings. I looked for toppings the whole family would enjoy. I used a combination or ground beef and Italian sausage. It was like adding little meatballs to the pizza.
The meat doesn't need to be cooked before adding it to the pizza. The pizza cooks long enough for the meat to be cooked thoroughly in the oven. When the pizza is all done, it may look a little watery when you remove it from the oven. Don't worry it will thicken up as it cools. Once the sauce sets, slice it up and enjoy! This is definitely a fork and knife kind of pizza, but it is so worth it.
