Machaca Recipes

Machaca Mushroom Pizza Recipe - Unique and Delicious

If you're anything like me, eating pizza and binge-watching Netflix are two of your favorite things. As an amateur sous chef (to my mom) and a devoted foodie for life, I recently indulged in David Chang's Ugly Delicious,  a Netflix series following the award-winning chef on his cross-cultural expedition for the world's most delicious food. Five minutes into Episode 1: Pizza, I was hooked.

Now I will be the first one to admit that I am at best mediocre when it comes to the kitchen, however, with a little direction I can deliver. Thanks to my brother's cooking skills and David Chang's expertise, we decided to embark on our own pizza quest.

A twist on a classic!

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a pan, sauté onions and cremini mushrooms in olive oil over medium heat until caramelized. Form pizza dough by hand into a 12" circle and place on a wooden pizza peel. Do not use a rolling pin as this will flatten the dough and make it dense.

  2. To make the dough reference the Life Changing Pizza Dough recipe. 

  3. Drizzle olive oil onto the 12" circle. The key with the toppings is to have a light hand. Less is really more.

  4. Add the Cremini mushrooms, sautéed onions, asiago cheese, parmesan cheese, and machaca on the pizza.

  5. Bake in a pizza oven until puffy and golden brown or in a 450°F oven.

  6. Top with rosemary and shaved parmesan. Sprinkle more Machaca as desired and enjoy
