Quichza

sort of a cross between a quiche and a pizza. since it’s been awhile since I baked pizza, I wanted something simple and different.

obtain or make your favorite pizza dough and form it into a deep cast iron skillet. Push it up the sides.

 

formcrust

Let it rise….

Sauté some white and sweet onions in butter, slowly not to brown…wht&sweetonions

add some greens, in this case from the Brussels sprout plant in the garden, some leafy greens from the stalk.

brussellleaves

clean , dice add to the onions… a bit of salt and pepper to taste… That’s all …

saute

cook the onions and greens over low heat to wilt and soften them, the dough should rise… a thick crust and billowy sides to hold the mixture..  just a touch of smoked hot red pepper flakes….added to the onions and greens for background…..

3 eggs and some milk…whisk together…..

Ok, so I could have added things like cheese, sausage, some other type of meat and herbs, that’s right, there was no garlic in this recipe!!! BUT , this was sort of a test recipe to keep the flavors basic. It was a success. Yes, maybe the next time around I’ll add the garlic, cheese and meat, but for now the greens and onions were excellent to taste. And the crust bountiful, to hold it all together.

Valdalia onion deep dish pizza

Valdalia Onion Deep Dish Pizza

I sliced two large valdalia onions, one white onion, and garlic (to taste) and layered in an small oven proof covered casarole with salt pepper and butter. Then roasted in a 350 oven covered for about 20 to 30 minutes. I let the onion mixture cool and placed it in the bowl that I made the dough in (with a few bits of dough remaining) with the liquid rendered from the roasting then I added some American cheese and season to taste with cilantro, dill etc. Now I crisped some diced bacon and added some of the rendered fat to the onion mixture and a few smoked hot red pepper flakes

Having prepared my favorite dough recipe and pressed it into a deep cast iron skillet,

as soon as the pizza dough was risen and ready, I beat two eggs, and added to the onion mixture and poured into the deep dish crust, garnished with the crisped diced bacon

and  baked at 500 degrees for about 10 minutes and then at about 375 degrees  for 15 additional minutes till the filling set. It cooled slightly, then cut and served.
