Preparation

  1. 1.
    In a small bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. 2.
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil.
  3. 3.
    Stir the ingredients together until a dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. 4.
    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
  5. 5.
    Preheat the oven to 230°C (450°F). Punch down the dough and divide it into two equal portions.
  6. 6.
    Roll out each portion into a thin circle and transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone.

    Spread tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  8. 8.
    Sprinkle shredded Manchego cheese over the sauce, followed by Spanish chorizo and piquillo peppers.
  9. 9.
    Bake the pizzas for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
  10. 10.
    Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Slice and serve hot.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Chorizo — For a milder flavor, you can use sweet Spanish chorizo instead of the spicy variety.
  • Manchego cheese — Opt for aged Manchego cheese for a stronger and nuttier taste.
  • Piquillo peppers — If piquillo peppers are not available, you can substitute them with roasted red bell peppers.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a crispier crust, preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven before placing the rolled-out dough on it.
  • Experiment with different Spanish cheeses like Idiazabal or Tetilla for a unique flavor profile.
  • Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of smoked paprika over the pizza before serving for an extra Spanish touch.
  • Serve the pizza with a side of aioli or romesco sauce for dipping.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes over the pizza before baking.

Serving advice

Serve the Sabroso Spanish-Style Pizza hot, straight from the oven. Cut it into slices and enjoy it as a main course or share it as a delightful appetizer during gatherings. Pair it with a fresh green salad dressed with a sherry vinaigrette to complete the meal.

Presentation advice

To enhance the presentation, garnish the pizza with a few whole piquillo peppers and a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley. The vibrant colors of the peppers and the green herbs will add visual appeal to the dish.
