Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb or 225 gr chorizo sausage
  • 1 lb approx. of store bought raw pizza dough
  • 1/2 lb asparagus about 1/2 of a large bunch, peeled into long pieces (see directions above)
  • 113 gr package of soft goat's cheese herb or plain
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella about 75 gr
  • Salt and pepper to season
  • Olive oil to lightly drizzle if desired

Instructions

  1. Take dough out of fridge and let rest on counter for 10-20 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 450° F. If you're using a pizza stone, place in oven to preheat, or lightly dust the back of two baking sheets with cornmeal or flour and set baking sheets aside.
  3. Brown chorizo in a pan over medium heat, breaking up the meat with the back of a wooden spoon, until cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
  4. Divide your pizza dough into 2 equal parts (eyeballing this is fine). On a floured surfaced roll out the dough into two 10" round pizzas. The dough will (and should) be quite thin. Place the dough on the pizza stone or your floured baking sheets.
  5. Top dough with mozzarella, asparagus, chorizo, goat's cheese, and salt and pepper. Place in oven and cook for 10-15 minutes.
  6. Let cool for a few minutes. Drizzle with olive oil right before serving if desired.
