Hawaiian Pulled Pork Pizza With Cauliflower Crust Recipes

HAWAIIAN PIZZA WITH CAULIFLOWER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven: Place the oven rack in the upper-middle position and preheat the oven to 475°F.
• Bake the pizza: Bake until the cheese is melted and pizza edges are golden browned and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Serve: Garnish pizza with black pepper and oregano, and slice and serve immediately while hot. Leftovers will keep for about a week. To reheat, place on a foil-lined baking sheet and cook at 375°F until the cheese is melted and the crust is warm and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.

HAWAIIAN PULLED PORK SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In small bowl, combine teriyaki mix, paprika and pepper.
• Coat the pork the with rub mixture, patting until all rub is used. Set aside.
• In a bowl whisk together the chicken broth, brown sugar, soy sauce, chili sauce and pineapple juice. Set aside.
• Put the chopped onions and carrots in a 5-quart slow cooker. Place the pork on top of the carrots and onions and pour half of the pineapple juice mixture over pork. Reserve remainder for Hawaiian sauce. Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours. The meat should fall apart easily. Remove the roast from the slow cooker to a cutting board. Using 2 forks carefully pull the meat into shreds.
• Hawaiian Sauce:
• In a medium pot heat the oil over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger and saute until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining pineapple juice mixture, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Serve the pork on rolls drizzled with the Hawaiian sauce or on the side for dipping.

PROSCIUTTO PIZZA WITH CAULIFLOWER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat a pizza stone or clean baking sheet in an oven to 475 degrees F.
• Add the cauliflower to a food processor and pulse until finely ground and the consistency of couscous; you should have about 4 cups.
• Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl. Add the Asiago, egg, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few turns of black pepper and combine until the mixture holds together when pinched. Pour onto a clean kitchen towel and wring out as much moisture as you can.
• Line a pizza peel, flat cutting board or cookie sheet with parchment and brush with some oil. Spread the cauliflower mixture into a 12-inch circle. Slide the parchment onto the preheated pizza stone and bake until barely golden and darker at the edges, about 15 minutes.
• Remove the crust from the oven, sprinkle with the mozzarella and spread the marinara over the top (this keeps the crust from becoming soggy and the cheese from sliding). Scatter the prosciutto across the top and sprinkle with a good pinch of crushed red pepper. Slide back onto the pizza stone and bake until bubbly with browned spots, about 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle with the basil just before serving.

PIZZA WITH CAULIFLOWER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until fine. Line a steamer basket with a kitchen towel (not terrycloth); set in a saucepan with 2 inches simmering water. Add the cauliflower, cover and cook 5 minutes. Drain well, then wring dry in the towel to get out all the moisture. Let cool.
• In a bowl, combine the cauliflower with 1/2 cup mozzarella, the parmesan, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, the garlic powder and eggs. Transfer to the center of the baking sheet and spread into a 10-inch circle to make a pizza crust. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
• Spread the marinara sauce on the crust; top with bell peppers and onion and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Return to the oven and bake an additional 10 minutes.
