Pizza Burgers

Pizza Burgers Dish Guide

Serves 3-4

Five Ingredients

1 lb ground Italian sausage

20-30 pepperoni

4 slices mozzarella cheese

½ cup pizza sauce (more or less to taste)

4 hamburger buns

From the Pantry

1 T olive oil

Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Form the sausage into 3 or 4 patties (depending on preference) slightly larger than your buns.

Put the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet and bring to medium heat. Add in the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side or until browned. Flip burgers and top with 6-8 pepperoni, followed by a spoonful of sauce spread over the pepperoni and then top with a slice of cheese. Place pan in the oven and cook for 6-8 minutes or until sausage is cooked through to 160 degrees F.

Allow the patties to rest for 5 minutes and toast the buns in the meantime. Slather more pizza sauce on the toasted bun if desired. Lay on a patty and serve immediately. Add any additional toppings as desired and serve with a side salad or fries.
