Cuisine: Mexican

Ingredients
- 1 pizza crust
- 2 cups pulled pork
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 cup tomatillo salsa
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will ensure that your pizza crust gets nice and crispy.
- Roll out your pizza crust on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. If you're using a pre-made crust, simply place it on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Spread the tomatillo salsa evenly over the surface of the pizza crust. This will serve as the base sauce for your pizza.
- Evenly distribute the pulled pork over the salsa-covered crust. Make sure to spread it out so that every bite has some delicious pulled pork.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the pulled pork. Use your favorite cheese blend for extra flavor, such as mozzarella or a Mexican cheese mix.
- Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
- While the pizza is baking, prepare the avocado by slicing it into thin wedges. Set aside.
- Once the pizza is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. This will make it easier to slice.
- Drizzle ranch dressing over the top of the pizza, or serve it on the side for dipping.
- Top the pizza with fresh avocado slices and garnish with chopped cilantro for a burst of freshness and color.
- Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your Sweet Pulled Pork Taco Pizza with Tomatillo Avocado Ranch!
Tips
- To ensure your Sweet Pulled Pork Taco Pizza turns out absolutely perfect, keep these pro tips in mind:
- Use a pizza stone or preheated baking sheet for the crispiest crust possible.
- Make sure your pulled pork is well-seasoned and not too wet to prevent a soggy pizza base.
- Let the pizza rest for 2-3 minutes after baking to make slicing easier and prevent burning your mouth.
- For extra flavor, consider using a blend of cheeses like Mexican blend or adding some pepper jack for a spicy kick.
- If you're short on time, don't hesitate to use pre-made pulled pork or a rotisserie chicken as an alternative.
- Fresh ingredients are key - use ripe avocados and fresh cilantro for the best flavor profile.
- Adjust the ranch dressing amount to your taste, and consider making a homemade version for an even more authentic touch.
