Italian Express in Chicago, Illinois is popular for their spicy gyros sandwich and pizza. Who doesn’t love gyros and who doesn’t love spicy? Pizza?? Oh what a combo!!
For starters you will need the pizza dough (check out our other video)
Ingredients for pizza (large size):
Shredded Mozzarella cheese (2 cups or more)
Pizza sauce (1 small jar or a cup)
Gyros strips (8-10 slices)
Huy Fong Chili garlic sauce (3 tbsp)
Red onions (handful slices) – optional
Thai green chili (1 chopped) – optional
Olive Oil
Cut the slices of gyros into strips and toss in a preheated pan with Huy Fong chili garlic sauce. Do not add any oil, as it will reheat in its own fat. The gyros are precooked so they just need to be sauteed in the sauce. Set aside.
If using frozen dough, thaw before using. Using a rolling pin either roll out the dough, or hand toss and stretch it to evenly spread over a generously greased pizza pan with olive oil spray. Prick the dough with a fork and evenly spread pizza sauce. Generously add shredded mozzarella cheese all over the pizza. Next top off with the spicy gyros strips. Add any garnish per taste.
Place in preheated oven at 400 for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown from the edges.
Enjoy!!
