Greetings dear friends, welcome to my blog. Today I am once again joining the weekly contest Qurator's: Hive Top Chef! | Pizza. I really like pizza, I haven't tried a slice for a long time, so this contest was a perfect fit for me. At first I hesitated to participate because I don't have an oven, only a microwave oven and I don't know how well the dough could be cooked there.
I remembered that in some supermarkets they sell pizza combos, I bought one for 6.5$, which consists of three large pizza bases already cooked, a 200 grs pizza sauce and half a kilo of whole mozzarella cheese.
That day when I bought the combo I took a small 100 g pepperoni. My main idea was to make a seafood pizza with some seafood I have in the fridge, but I also wanted to try it with pepperoni. I said to myself “why wait another day to prepare the pepperoni”, I'd better combine them and enjoy both flavors. As it was, it was half seafood and half pepperoni. With that big pizza base, 8 pieces come out, like the ones sold in the restaurant, and I can't complain, it was delicious.
Ingredients
- 80 grs of cooked octopus tentacles
- 140 grams of shrimp in shell
- 95 grams of squid
- 4 tablespoons pizza sauce
- 7 pepperoni slices
- 140 grs mozzarella cheese
- 1 large pizza base already cooked
- 1 large pizza base already cooked
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 10 pitted olives
Preparation
1.-. Clean the shrimp by removing the head, tail, shell and veins from the back and the bottom. Wash them and set aside. We also clean the squid, removing the head, the feather, the ink and the viscera of the body. Wash and set aside. Cut the tentacles of the cooked octopus into pieces.
2.- Season the seafood with salt and pepper to taste.
3.- In a saucepan add two tablespoons of oil and sauté the seafood for three minutes. Set aside.
4.- Grate the mozzarella cheese on the fine side of the stalk.
5.- Spread the tomato paste on the pizza base and divide it into eight slice.
6.- Add the mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices and olives cut in half, only on half of the pizza base.
7.- To the other half of the pizza base, we place the seafood. Then, we put it in the microwave oven until the cheese melts. It took 2 minutes.
This is how the combined pizza turned out, sea and land, pepperoni and seafood. It was as delicious as it looks.
I hope you liked it, this has been my participation in Hive Top Chef competition. See you another time.
