Pizza Sandwich

Ingredients

• 1 sheet Pizza Dough (rolled to a 10‑inch circle, about 1/4‑inch thick)
• 8 slices Pepperoni (thin slices)
• 2 oz Mozzarella Cheese (low‑moisture shredded)
• 4 slices Italian Dry Salami (thinly sliced)
• 2 slices Ham (deli‑style, thin)
• 4 slices Pickles (dill, sliced lengthwise)
• 1 ball Arancini (Rice Ball) (about 2 oz, frozen or homemade)
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil (extra‑virgin, for pan‑frying)
• 1 tbsp Unsalted Butter (softened, for crisping flatbread)
• 1 pinch Salt (optional, for flatbread seasoning)
• 1 pinch Black Pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

   Set the oven to 425°F (220°C) and let it preheat while you prepare the dough.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 425°F

2. Shape Pizza Flatbread

   On a lightly floured surface, roll the pizza dough into a 10‑inch circle about 1/4‑inch thick. Transfer to a parchment‑lined baking sheet.

   Time: PT5M

3. Add Pepperoni and Mozzarella

   Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella on top.

   Time: PT2M

4. Bake the Flatbread

   Place the sheet in the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the edges of the dough are golden, about 8 minutes.

   Time: PT8M

   Temperature: 425°F

5. Flip and Crisp the Other Side

   Remove the flatbread, flip it over, and in a skillet melt 1 tbsp butter over medium heat. Quickly crisp the blank side for 2 minutes.

   Time: PT2M

6. Flatten the Arancini

   Place the arancini ball in a mixing bowl and gently press with your hands or a flat spatula to form a 1/2‑inch thick patty.

   Time: PT2M

7. Cook the Arancini Patty

   Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in the same skillet over medium‑high heat. Add the flattened arancini and cook 3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

   Time: PT6M

8. Crisp Salami, Ham, and Pickles

   In the skillet, add a splash of oil if needed and quickly sear the salami slices, ham slices, and pickle slices—about 30 seconds each side—just until they develop a light crust.

   Time: PT2M

9. Assemble the Sandwich

   On the bottom side of the flatbread, layer the crisped salami, then the pickles, followed by the ham, and place the cooked arancini patty in the center. Top with the other flatbread side, press gently, and cut the sandwich in half.

   Time: PT2M
