Instructions
Note from contributor: This is not fast food and is actually a casserole that mimics Chicago-style pan pizzas. It is a free-form
pizza and you choose whatever toppings you prefer.
Coat a cast iron skillet with olive oil.
Liberally coat tortilla with olive oil and fit inside skillet.
Top with your favorite pizza or tomato sauce and parmesan cheese.
Meats, such as sausage, must be precooked. Add meat(s) and toppings of your choice.
Pre-cooking vegetables, such as mushrooms or onions, will reduce the moisture and speed cooking.
Add your choice of shredded cheese and top with seasonings. Drizzle liberally with olive oil.
Bring very slowly to a low simmer. Take your time, too fast blackens the tortilla. It will simmer for 45 minutes or longer
depending on the moisture content. It’s done when it mostly stops bubbling, remove from pan and it will cool quickly.
