Instructions
Here’s how to create your own Easy Sheet Pan Taco Pizza effortlessly:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures that your pizza bakes evenly.
2. Cook the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess grease.
3. Add Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning along with 1/4 cup of water. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Set aside.
4. Prepare the Pan: Lightly grease a large sheet pan with olive oil. Then, unroll the pizza dough and press it onto the pan, making sure to cover the edges.
5. Bake the Crust: Place the pan in the oven and bake the crust for about 10 minutes, or until it’s slightly golden.
6. Layer the Ingredients: Remove the crust from the oven. Evenly distribute the seasoned meat over the crust. Follow this with the black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and onions.
7. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top, ensuring a gooey finish.
8. Return to Oven: Bake again for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
9. Garnish: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven. Top with shredded lettuce, diced jalapeño (if using), and freshly chopped cilantro.
10. Slice and Serve: Cut the pizza into squares or slices and serve warm with a side of sour cream for dipping.
