Cajun Sausage Pizza
Cajun Sausage Pizza – a creamy homemade cajun sauce tops your favorite pizza dough, then gets piled with sliced andouille sausage, bell peppers, and gooey cheese. Grab a slice and pair it with a glass of wine for an easy summer dinner!
Ingredients
- 1 pizza crust, homemade or refrigerated
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3/4 tsp Creole seasoning
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 12 oz packageAidells® Cajun Style Andouille Sausage, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- chopped green onions for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Melt butter in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in heavy cream and Creole seasoning. Reduce heat to low and cook until sauce thickens, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese until melted.
- Roll pizza dough out onto prepared baking sheet. Spread sauce over the top, reserving a very small amount for drizzling over the top of pizza at the end (maybe a couple tablespoons). Top the pizza with sliced sausage, bell peppers, and cheese.
- Bake in preheated oven for 12-16 minutes until cheese is melted and edges are golden brown. Slice and drizzle remaining sauce over the top. Enjoy!
Notes
*If you like a crispy crust, you can pre bake your crust for about 5 minutes before adding the toppings!
