Jims Potato Pizza Recipes

POTATO PIZZAS

Steps:

• Slice potatoes very thin with a mandoline, and place in a bowl. Pour lemon juice over potatoes, and add a pinch of coarse salt. Let sit at least 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 1 tablespoon oil. Add onions, and stir to coat. Reduce heat to low, and cook 10 minutes. Season onions with coarse salt, and cook, stirring frequently, until rich brown in color, 45 minutes to 1 hour (add a little water to skillet if onions begin to stick). Remove from heat, and let cool.
• Heat remaining oil and the rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat 15 minutes (do not let boil). Let cool, then pour through a fine sieve into a bowl.
• Meanwhile, place a pizza stone on middle rack of oven, and preheat oven to 500 degrees, at least 30 minutes. Divide dough into 2 pieces, and form each into a ball. Loosely cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let stand 15 minutes. Roll each ball of dough into a 12-inch round or an oval about 1/8-inch thick on a lightly floured work surface with a lightly floured rolling pin (or stretch it with your hands). Lightly dust a wooden pizza peel with cornmeal, and place 1 round of dough on peel. Generously brush dough with rosemary oil. Place half the onions on dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Drain potatoes, discarding lemon juice, and cover onions with half the potatoes. Crumble half the goat cheese over potatoes.
• Slide pizza from peel to pizza stone, and bake until crust is golden brown and potatoes are cooked, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer pizza to a cutting board, and sprinkle with sea salt. Repeat with second pizza.

JIMMY'S MEXICAN PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat 2 pie plates with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place beef, onion and garlic in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until beef is evenly browned. Drain off grease. Season the meat with chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper.
• Lay one tortilla in each pie plate, and cover with a layer of refried beans. Spread half of the seasoned ground beef over each one, and then cover with a second tortilla. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven.
• Remove the plates from the oven, and let cool slightly. Spread half of the salsa over each top tortilla. Cover each pizza with half of the Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses. Place half of the tomatoes, half of the green onions, and half of the jalapeno slices onto each one.
• Return the pizzas to the oven, and bake for 5 to 10 more minutes, until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven, and let cool slightly before slicing each one into 4 pieces.
