My Katie made this pizza for dinner last night and I did not have cherry tomatoes so we substituted a can of diced tomato. Wow was it good. Looks like gourmet pizza.
1 13.8 ounce tube of refrigerator pizza dough
1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1 12 ounce bag cherry tomato (we substituted a can of diced)
1 clove of garlic crushed
1/2 tsp fennel seed coarsely crushed in plastic bag
1/4 tsp diced crushed red pepper
1 4 ounce ball fresh mozzarella in water, diced
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
Position rack on top shelf of oven
Heat oven 425 degrees
Unroll dough on heavy baking sheet
Fold over edges to make border
Heat skillet over high heat add oil, tomatoes, sprinkle salt and pepper
Sauté until tomatoes are charred about five minutes
Transfer to large bowl
Mix garlic, fennel, crushed red pepper using back of fork crush ingredients together
Add tomatoes and crush together
Season with salt and pepper
Toss cheese and chopped basil in bowl
Sprinkle cheese evenly over pizza crust
Spoon on tomato mixture in dollops, leaving some cheese mixture uncovered
Bake until crust is crisp and brown about 25 - 30 minutes
Loosen with metal spatula and slide onto board garnish with fresh basil leaves
Yummo
