Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound pizza dough store-bought or homemade
  • 1/2 cup birria broth
  • 1 cup birria meat shredded and tender
  • 1 cup Oaxaca cheese shredded
  • 1 small jalapeño sliced

Equipment

  • Pizza stone or baking sheet
  • Rolling Pin
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Sharp knife
  • Wooden spoon or spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) for a perfectly crispy crust.
  2. On a floured surface, roll out your pizza dough into a round shape, about 12 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Spread the 1/2 cup of birria broth evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough.
  4. Evenly distribute the 1 cup of shredded birria meat over the broth-covered dough.
  5. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded Oaxaca cheese generously over the top.
  6. Add the 1 small sliced jalapeño on top for a spicy kick.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, slice into wedges, and serve warm.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, swap the birria meat with sautéed mushrooms or vegetables.
  • Customize with extra toppings like bell peppers or onions.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
