Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 16 ounces pre-made pizza dough
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • 8 teaspoons pizza sauce ((roughly))
  • 4 sticks mozzarella string cheese (cut into 4 pieces each)
  • chopped red pepper
  • chopped red onion

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 425° F.
  • Be sure to follow package directions for the pizza dough. (Mine stated to leave dough in package and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.)
  • In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, garlic powder, parsley, oregano, and basil. Spread about 1 tablespoon of herb butter in the bottom of a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Set herbed butter aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, cut dough into 16 equal pieces. Using your hands, flatten each piece of dough, and spread it out to form a circle. Spread the center of the dough with about ½ teaspoon pizza sauce. Place a piece of cheese on top of the sauce, and sprinkle with red pepper and red onions (or toppings of your choice).
  • Pinch the edges of the dough together, bringing the dough around the outside of the fillings. Roll the dough around in your hands to form a ball. Place the pinched side down in the buttered cast iron skillet. Continue working with the dough, filling all 16 pieces and placing them all in the skillet. Once done, drizzle 1 tablespoon of the melted herbed butter over the dough balls.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the 425° F oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Carefully remove from the oven, and drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon herbed butter over the top of the pizza bombs.
