Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 medium red bell pepper finely diced
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper finely diced
  • 1 pound JENNIE-O® All Natural Turkey Sausage
  • All-purpose flour for dusting
  • One 17.3-ounce package frozen puff pastry thawed
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
  • 24 pepperoni slices
  • 9 slices mozzarella

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; add the onions and cook until softened and slightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in the oregano, garlic and red and yellow peppers and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Set aside to cool for 20 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in another large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the sausage and cook, using the back of a wooden spoon to break up the sausage meat into small bits, until browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Set aside to cool for 20 minutes.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out each puff pastry sheet to about 13 inches long and 10 inches wide.
  • Place one of the puff pastry pieces on the lined baking sheet; set aside the other piece.
  • Whisk the egg in a small bowl with 1 tablespoon water.
  • Sprinkle 2 cups of the Monterey Jack cheese over the puff pastry sheet on the baking sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges of the pastry.
  • Continue layering with half the caramelized onions and peppers, sausage and pepperoni; finish with half the mozzarella slices.
  • Brush the border of the puff pastry with the egg wash, lay the remaining puff pastry pieces over top and use a fork to crimp the edges.
  • Using a sharp paring knife, cut three 1 1/2-inch vents in the top.
  • Put the pie into the fridge to chill for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F
  • Brush the pie with the egg wash.
  • Bake on the bottom rack until the pastry is nicely browned, about 20 minutes.

Notes

You don't need to use two cast iron skillets - any large kitchen skillets will work. I just happen to be obsessed with cast iron right now.
Also, if you want a spicier pizza, try JENNIE-O® Hot All Natural* Turkey Sausage. Or JENNIE-O® Italian Style Turkey Sausage or JENNIE-O® Chorizo Seasonings Turkey Sausage would also be equally delicious!
