Pizza Pot Pie

Prep:30minCook:30min

Copycat of the amazing Pizza Pot Pie from the Chicago Pizza and Overn Grinder Co. The original was conceived by the owner in his Chicago Law Office while Dreaming of “il gran giorno” when he would open his restaurant, the Pizza Pot Pie has become a favorite of world-wide pizza connoisseurs who have graced the Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder Company since its inception in 1972. The Pizza Pot Pie is an individual serving, “made from scratch” with triple-raised Sicilian bread-type dough; a homemade sauce consisting of olive oil, fresh garlic, onions, green peppers, whole plum tomatoes and a special blend of cheeses; sausage made from prime Boston butts; and doorknob-size, whole, fresh mushrooms. This will be as close as we can get, or at least try.

dough

Homemade, room temperature

Instructions

Step 1

Now take an oven safe bowl and coat in vegetable oil or cooking spray. (this prevents the cheese from sticking to the bottom) From here we start adding the cheese(s) so that it coats the bottom and sides of the oven safe bowl.

Step 2

Add ingredients as you choose. Make sure you leave enough room for a good amount of sauce.

Step 3

Add the sauce so that it almost level to the top of the bowl.

Step 4

Take the dough and coat in the the vegetable oil on the side that is facing down. Then place the top over the pizza pie and brush the top with a little more oil. If you use the Pillsbury pizza dough, note that the shape is square, and you will have 4 large corners of dough. Either trim the corners or roll them up under to make the edge of the crust.

Step 5

In an oven at 500 degrees.... they go

Step 6

While the pot pies are cooking (takes about 25-30 min at 500 degrees) Take the remainder of the dough and re-roll. (For Mediterranean Bread)
