Directions


1

  • Chop pepperoni slices into coarsely cut pieces of a desired size.
  • Crack egg into mixing bowl and beat until smooth.
  • Add 1/2 cup of cheese, 1/4 cup of pepperoni, green onions, herbs of choice (parsley, rosemary
    or similar), ground pepper and salt. Add frozen potatoes and mix all ingredients together.
  • On stovetop, add 1 tablespoon of oil to a 10 inch non-stick skillet, warming oil on medium
    heat setting.
  • Add frozen potato mixture to a non-stick skillet, using a spatula to level the potatoes evenly
    across the pan. Since the potato mixture does not firm up after cooking only one side, the non-stick
    skillet will assist with the ease of turning the pizza over when the first side is finished cooking.
    Cover pan and cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until golden brown on bottom surface of potatoes. Remove
    cover and cook for an additional 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Remove skillet from stovetop. Using protective mitts or hotpads, place a flat baking sheet
    over the skillet. Hold baking sheet against skillet and turn skillet over so pizza drops out of
    skillet onto baking sheet.
  • Remove bits of potato from skillet and place it back onto burner, adding remaining 1 tablespoon
    of oil.
  • Slide potato pizza off baking sheet and into skillet, allowing uncooked surface to begin
    cooking.
  • Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over top of potato pizza. Disperse remaining 1/4 cup of
    pepperoni over cheese.
  • Cook second side in uncovered skillet for 5 to 6 minutes, until golden brown. When finished
    cooking, tilt skillet and allow potato pizza to slide out of skillet onto serving plate. Cut into
    4 pie-shaped pieces and serve warm.
