Pizza with Italian Sweet
Sausage and
Garlic Spinach
Makes one 1-inch pizza
2
teaspoons olive oil
6 ounces fresh Italian sweet sausage,

3 to 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
8
packed cups fresh spinach, washed

¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
¼ cup dry white wine
1 ⁄
3
recipe pizza dough
½ cup pizza sauce
8 ounces mozzarella, shredded
1 ounce Parmesan, grated

Heat olive oil in a 1-inch skillet over medium
heat. When oil shimmers across the pan add
the sausage. Break up sausage into small
pieces with a wooden spoon while it is
cooking. Once sausage is completely cooked
through, remove from pan and reserve.
Pour off all but 1 teaspoon of fat and add the
chopped garlic to the pan and place over
medium low heat. Stir for one minute, until
garlic is fragrant, being careful not to burn.
Stir in spinach until wilted and add the salt
and crushed red pepper. Stir in the white
wine, scraping up any browned bits that have
been left behind in the pan. Continue cooking
over medium heat until wine has been almost
completely reduced. Remove from heat and
reserve.

and Parmesan evenly over pie as well. Brush
olive oil along the border.
Bake in preheated oven until the crust is
golden and the cheese is melted, about 15 to
0 minutes.

the oven.
