Golden Coast Pastor Pizza

Directions

  1. To prepare Al Pastor Marinated Pork: In a pot, combine the water, guajillo peppers, and ancho pepper. Boil for 15 minutes.
  2. Drain the peppers and transfer to a blender. Add the pineapple juice, orange juice, onion, garlic, achiote paste, salt, vinegar, allspice, cumin, oregano, paprika, and black pepper. Blend until smooth. Strain the mixture into a bowl, add the pork, and refrigerate for 6–24 hours.
  3. Sauté the pork before using on the pizza.
  4. To prepare the Pineapple Chutney: In a pot over medium heat, combine the pineapple, onion, serrano peppers, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a gentle boil.
  5. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 15–20 minutes.
  6. Stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until ready to use.
  7. To finish the Pizza and Garnish: Preheat oven to 520°F.
  8. Stretch the dough into a 13-inch round. Top with 6 oz. Al Pastor Marinated Pork, Mozzarella, smoked Mozzarella, and Monterey Jack.
  9. Bake until the crust is cooked and the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
  10. Top with the Brie, 4 oz. Pineapple Chutney, serrano peppers, red onion, Queso Fresco, Maldon salt, and cilantro.
  11. Squeeze the lime wedge over the pizza and cut into 6 slices.
