Great recipe for Honey Jalepeño Pizza. Pizza, or as the Italians would say, "pizza." Yes, I (Gianni) actually put that into Google Translate just to make sure that pizza in Italian wasn't spelled differently. Pizza has come a long way from it's humble origins in the bustling city of Naples to.
Honey Jalepeño Pizza is one of the most popular of recent trending foods on earth. It is simple, it’s quick, it tastes yummy. It’s appreciated by millions every day. Honey Jalepeño Pizza is something which I’ve loved my whole life. They are nice and they look fantastic.
To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can cook honey jalepeño pizza using 9 ingredients and 16 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Honey Jalepeño Pizza:
- Get Pizza dough (store bought or homemade) we used this recipe https://www.sugardishme.com/10-minute-pizza-dough/
- Take Pizza sauce, as much or as little as you like (we made our own, but you can buy some pre-made in a jar too!)
- Prepare 1 cup torn mozzarella cheese
- Take 1 1/4 cup shredded Italian cheese blend
- Get 1 jalapeño, sliced and de-seeded (leave seeds in for extra heat)
- Get Pepperoni slices, as much or as little as you like
- Make ready 1 small handful of fresh basil leaves
- Get Sriracha, for drizzling
- Take Honey, for drizzling
If you are buying pre-made dough, skip this step! (NOTE: we recommend Trader Joes "ready to bake garlic and herb pizza dough" if you live near a Trader Joes! Lightly coat a baking sheet or pizza pan with olive oil. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Heat the honey and the jalapeños in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
Steps to make Honey Jalepeño Pizza:
- Preheat your oven to 500 degrees F.
- Start out by making your pizza dough by following the linked recipe to a T. If you are buying pre-made dough, skip this step! (NOTE: we recommend Trader Joes “ready to bake garlic and herb pizza dough” if you live near a Trader Joes! Any kind of pizza dough is just fine though.)
- While your dough is rising for 10 minutes, pull off chunks of mozzarella from your mozzarella ball until you get about 1 cup’s worth and place them in a bowl.
- Next, wash your jalapeño, pat it dry with paper towel and place it on a cutting board. Cut your jalapeño into slices and then de-seed them, using a toothpick to poke out the seeds.
- Remove your fresh basil leaves from the stem and set them aside. Wash and pat them dry if you feel like being sanitary!
- Don’t forget to get out your pepperoni and shredded cheese as well!
- After 10-ish minutes have passed, sprinkle some flour down on a clean surface and place your dough ball on the counter. Grab a rolling pin and roll out that dough! (NOTE: We rolled ours out to be about ~1/8-1/4″ thin… so pretty thin. We found that this was the perfect thickness after it was done. It will rise quite a bit, so don’t make it too thick!)
- Place your dough on a greased pizza stone or cast iron pizza pan. (NOTE: If you don’t have a pizza stone or pan, use the back side of a sheet pan! Don’t forget to spray it with non-stick spray. If you need to shape your pizza to be a little more square, go for it!)
- Next, season your crust! (NOTE: We recommend basting it with melted butter or olive oil mixed with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. If you’re using freshly-pressed garlic cloves, don’t overdo it because it has a strong flavor!)
- Now start spooning your pizza sauce onto the dough and spread it around. Add as much or as little as you like.
- Then add your shredded Italian cheese blend, evenly distributing
- Add the pepperoni next. Again, add as much or as little as you like. Then add the jalapeño slices, then the mozzarella chunks and then finally the basil leaves.
- Place your pizza in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, Take your pizza out and see if it’s cooked to your liking. We ended up putting ours back in for 2 more minutes!
- When you’re happy with your pizza’s done-ness, finish it off with a drizzle of Sriracha across the top, followed by a drizzle of honey.
- Enjoy!! 🙂
Let the honey come to a light simmer then turn off the honey. Strain the honey through a fine mesh sieve to remove the peppers and the seeds. I like to keep the peppers and throw them on the pizza! The pizza crust should be golden brown and cheese should be melted. Remove from the oven and add a few dollops of ricotta, a drizzle of fresh (local is best!) honey, a sprinkle of red chili pepper flakes, and garnish with fresh basil.
