Ingredients
-
2 tablespoon olive oil
-
2 tablespoon tomato paste
-
2 tablespoon dry red wine
-
1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
-
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
-
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
-
½ teaspoon garlic powder
-
Salt and black pepper
-
1 pound purchased pizza dough or 1/2 recipe Homemade Pizza Dough (see recipe)
-
8 ounce mozzarella cheese, shredded (2 cups)
-
2 ounce thinly sliced capocollo
-
1 medium bulb fennel, trimmed, cored, and thinly sliced
Directions
-
For sauce, in medium saucepan heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil over medium. Add the tomato paste; cook and stir 2 minutes. Add red wine; cook and stir 1 minute. Add tomatoes, fennel seeds, oregano, and garlic powder. Bring to boiling; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, about 5 minutes or until thickened. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper; cool 10 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425°F. Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Grease a 15×10×1-inch baking pan. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 15×10-inch rectangle; place in baking pan and stretch to fit, pressing dough up the sides and letting it rest as needed.
-
Spread sauce evenly over dough. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Arrange capocollo over cheese. Top with sliced fennel and drizzle with 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Bake 25 minutes or until the cheese and crust are lightly browned. Cool 10 minutes before serving. Serves 6.
Homemade Pizza Dough
In an extra-large bowl combine 1 3/4 cups lukewarm water (105°F to 115°F) and 1 1/2 tsp. active dry yeast; let stand 5 minutes or until yeast is foamy. Stir in 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 2 tsp. kosher salt. (Dough will be shaggy.) Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes. Place in a well-greased bowl, turning to grease surface of dough. Cover with plastic; let rise at room temperature until double in size, 1 1/2 hours. Punch dough down. Shape into two balls. (If not using dough right away, cover and chill up to 2 days.) Makes two 1-lb. portions of dough.
