Cheese & Broccolini Naan Pizza
Lemony roasted broccolini atop cheesy naan mini pizzas make for an easy weeknight meal.
Ingredients
Roasted Broccolini
- 1 bunch broccolini or 1 small bunch broccoli (350 g), trimmed (see note #1)
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil divided
- ¼ tsp each salt and pepper
- ¼ lemon thinly sliced (optional)
- 3 tbsp finely grated Parmesan
Pizza
- 4 naan
- 1 340-g pizza mozzarella ball thinly sliced
- 20 pepperoni slices approx (see note #1)
- 2-4 eggs optional
- ½ red finger chili thinly sliced
- ¼ tsp each salt and pepper
- ¼ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. On baking sheet, toss broccolini with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay lemon slices (if using) on top and sprinkle 3 tbsp of the Parmesan over frilly tops; roast until charred and crispy, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Line another baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange naan and top with mozzarella, broccolini and pepperoni. Crack an egg (if using) overtop each naan pizza and scatter chilies overtop. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp of the Parmesan and salt and pepper.
- Bake until cheese is melted and the white of the egg (if using) is set, 10 to 11 minutes.
- Serve with remaining 2 tbsp Parmesan sprinkled overtop.
Notes
- If you’re using broccoli, thinly slice lengthwise through the stem, and add more roasting time if needed.
- Swap out the pepperoni for bacon or sausage.
