Ingredients

16 servings

  • 1 (10 ounce) package tube chorizo (such as Cacique®)
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can Hunt's® Diced Tomatoes, drained
  • 1 pound fresh pizza dough
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided (or more to taste)
  • 1 cup crumbled Cotija cheese, divided (or more to taste)
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo and cook, gently breaking it up after a couple minutes. Allow it to bubble, stirring infrequently, until most of the bubbles have stopped and sausage is firm. Remove from heat.
  • Place tomatoes into a bowl. Break into smaller pieces with the back of a fork, if desired.
  • Divide dough into 16 small pieces, flattening each into a small circle. Place each circle on prepared baking sheet. Divide tomatoes and then the chorizo among the circles. Top with shredded Monterey Jack and crumbled cotija cheese.
  • Bake in preheated oven until dough is golden brown and cheese has melted, 8 to 15 minutes. Check after 8 minutes to ensure chorizo is not burning.
  • Top with minced cilantro leaves.
