How To Make Pioneer Woman Pizzadilla

Melt the Butter: Place a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it bubbles slightly.
Build the Base: Place one flour tortilla in the skillet and quickly spread the pizza sauce evenly over the top.
Add the Fillings: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce and arrange the pepperoni slices in an even layer.
Seal and Cook: Place the second tortilla on top and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
Flip and Finish: Carefully flip the pizzadilla with a large spatula and cook for another 3 minutes until the cheese is completely melted.

Recipe Tips

Control the heat: Keep the skillet on medium so the cheese has time to melt before the tortilla burns.
Leave a border: Spread the sauce and cheese about a half-inch away from the edge to prevent messy spills.
Use block cheese: Freshly grated mozzarella melts much better than pre-shredded cheese from a bag.

What To Serve With Pizzadilla?

A crisp green salad with Italian vinaigrette cuts through the richness of the cheese and pepperoni perfectly. For a heartier meal, serve it alongside some warm marinara sauce for dipping and a side of garlic butter mushrooms.

Can I bake these in the oven?
