Today’s Special: Pineapple and Jalapeño Pizza

Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique and flavorful twist on a classic pizza recipe that combines the sweetness of pineapple with the spicy kick of jalapeño. This unconventional pairing creates a deliciously balanced pizza that is sure to surprise and delight your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • pizza dough (300g)
  • tomato sauce (150g)
  • mozzarella cheese (200g)
  • pineapple chunks (100g)
  • jalapeño slices (50g)
  • fresh cilantro (10g)

Kitchen Tools:

  • rolling pin
  • pizza stone
  • pizza cutter

To start, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone in the oven to heat up. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface using a rolling pin until it reaches your desired thickness.

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, followed by the pineapple chunks and jalapeño slices. Feel free to adjust the amounts of pineapple and jalapeño to suit your personal taste preferences.

Carefully transfer the pizza onto the hot pizza stone in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on the pizza to ensure it doesn’t burn.

Once the pizza is out of the oven, garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness. Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing it into wedges using a pizza cutter.

Serving:

This Pineapple and Jalapeño Pizza weighs approximately 660g once cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 165g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per slice.

Tip:

For an extra burst of flavor, try drizzling a bit of honey over the finished pizza before serving. The sweetness of the honey complements the spicy jalapeños perfectly.

I hope you enjoy this unique and delicious pizza recipe! Feel free to customize it with your favorite toppings or add some protein like cooked chicken or bacon for an extra twist. Happy cooking!
