A delicious and simple recipe for a deep-dish pizza pie, perfect for family dinners or casual gatherings.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
Place the pre-made pie crust into a pie dish and prick the bottom and sides with a fork. Bake for about 10 minutes or until slightly golden. Remove and set aside.
Pricking the crust prevents it from puffing up during baking.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the Italian sausage until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms, cooking until the onion is soft and translucent, about another 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Drain the fat to avoid a greasy filling.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan evenly over the bottom of the pre-baked crust.
Layering cheese first creates a barrier to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
Spread the cooked sausage mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Distribute the filling evenly for consistent flavor in every bite.
Spread the pizza sauce over the sausage mixture, ensuring it covers the entire surface. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
Use a spoon to spread the sauce evenly.
Bake the assembled pie in the oven for 30 minutes or until the top is bubbly and slightly browned. Let it cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
Allowing the pie to cool slightly makes it easier to slice.
