Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound prepared fresh pizza dough
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided (1 tablespoon to brush the dough and 1 tablespoon to cook the ground beef)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 cup small diced yellow onion, divided (¾ cup added to cooked ground beef, ¼ cup for toppings)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2½ cups shredded yellow American cheese, from an 8-ounce piece sliced at the deli counter
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • ⅓ cup hamburger sliced dill pickles, patted dry
  • ⅓ cup bottled Thousand Island dressing
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly spray a large 15 to 16-inch round pizza pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • On a clean work surface, carefully roll or stretch out your fresh pizza dough to 14 inches, then place it onto the prepared pizza pan. Using a fork, poke holes all over the entire surface of the pizza dough, leaving about a half-inch border around the edges.
  • Brush the entire surface of the pizza crust with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Bake the pizza dough for 15 minutes. Once partially baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool.
  • While the pizza dough is baking, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, ¾ cup diced onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook and brown the beef for 5-6 minutes, until no pink remains.
  • Remove the cooked ground beef from the skillet and drain excess grease on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Spoon the ground beef mixture onto the par-baked pizza dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust.
  • Top with shredded American cheese, ensuring even coverage. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 7-11 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and slide it onto a large cutting board. Sprinkle the shredded lettuce and remaining ¼ cup diced onion over the cheese.
  • Arrange the dill pickle slices on top, drizzle the Thousand Island dressing in a decorative pattern, and garnish with sesame seeds.
  • Cut the pizza into 8 slices, first cutting it in half, then into quarters, and finally cutting each quarter into two pieces.

Notes

  • You can substitute the shredded American cheese with mozzarella or cheddar if desired.
  • For a spicier twist, try adding a bit of hot sauce or pickled jalapeños.
