This flavorful pizza loaded with sausage, ricotta, and fennel is sure to be a family favorite.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 (14 ounce) package prepared pizza crust
- ½ pound bulk hot Italian sausage
- ½ yellow onion, thinly sliced
- ½ bulb fennel, thinly sliced
- ½ cup baby spinach leaves
- ½ cup ricotta cheese
- ¼ cup shaved Parmesan cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper, and salt. Cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have mostly broken down, about 5 minutes. Spread tomato mixture over the pizza crust.
Step 3
Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Remove cooked sausage from the pan and set aside, reserving grease in the pan. Add onion and fennel to the pan and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and cook until leaves begin to wilt, about 30 seconds.
Step 4
Spread sausage and vegetable mixture over tomato-covered crust. Scatter dollops of ricotta cheese on top. Sprinkle with shaved Parmesan cheese.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and top is beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
