Pepperoni Pizzadilla Recipes

4 CHEESE PEPPERONI PIZZADILLA

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Heat the butter and oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place one flour tortilla in the skillet. Spread a few tablespoons pizza sauce on the tortilla, leaving a little room around the edges. Sprinkle half of the provolone and half of the fontina over the sauce. Sprinkle a third of the mozzarella next, followed by 1 tablespoon Parmesan and 1/2 teaspoon oregano.
• Top with the second tortilla and press it down gently. Once the underside is perfectly toasted, carefully flip the quesadilla to the other side.
• Spread a few more tablespoons pizza sauce on the toasted side of the tortilla, being sure to leave a little bit of the edges exposed so it looks like a pizza. Sprinkle with another third of the mozzarella and the remaining provolone, fontina, Parmesan and oregano.
• Arrange the red bell pepper and red onion on top of the cheeses like you would on a pizza. Do the same with the pepperoni slices and the olives. Top with the remaining mozzarella.
• Transfer the pan to the broiler and let cook to melt the cheese on top, about 2 minutes. Carefully transfer the pizzadilla to a cutting board using a large spatula or two smaller spatulas.
• Warm up the remaining pizza sauce and serve in a bowl for dipping. Cut the pizzadilla into wedges and garnish with the torn basil.

PIZZADILLAS

Steps:

• Spread pizza sauce on one tortilla.
• Sprinkle with cheese.
• Add toppings of your choice, or add some extra cheese and keep it simple.
• Top with second tortilla.
• Spray the outside of the pizzadilla with spray butter or non-stick cooking spray. I find it easiest to spray the pan, place the pizzadilla in the pan, and then spray the top side, so that all of the ingredients won't fall out trying to juggle it.
• Cook until golden brown and cheese is melted in a pan over medium heat, flipping once.
• Cut into wedges. Use remaining sauce for dipping!

PIZZADILLAS

Steps:

• Lay all tortillas on counter. Sprinkle each very generously with cheese on each tortilla. Drizzle with a few ounces of sauce. Spread pepperoni and sausage over cheese and cover with remaining cheese. Fold over each tortilla to form a half-moon quesadilla. In a heated, large nonstick pan, brown both sides of quesadillas. Bake pizzadillas in a 350 degree F oven for 5 minutes. Cut each pizzadilla into quarters and serve with remaining pizza sauce for dipping.

PEPPERONI PIZZADILLA

Steps:

• Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. When hot, put the tortilla in the pan (no need to add any fat). Sprinkle half the cheese evenly over half the tortilla, followed by the pepperoni, the olives, the oregano, and the remaining cheese. Fold the bare half over the filling. Cook the tortilla until the cheese on the bottom half is mostly melted and the tortilla is lightly browned in spots, about 2 minutes. Then, using a spatula, carefully flip the quesadilla. Continue cooking it until the cheese is completely melted and the bottom is lightly browned in spots.
• Slice the quesadilla into 4 wedges. Serve immediately with marinara on the side for dipping.
