Description

A delicious fusion of taco and pizza, featuring crispy crust, cheesy goodness, and tender birria meat.


Ingredients

  • Pizza dough (store bought dough, flatbread, or large tortilla)
  • Cooked birria meat (shredded beef, goat, or lamb)
  • Consome (birria broth, for dipping and brushing)
  • Cheese (Oaxaca or mozzarella)
  • Red onion or white onion (finely chopped)
  • Fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • Lime wedges
  • Optional: sliced jalapenos, hot sauce, or salsa

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F.
  2. Prepare your dough by rolling or stretching it into shape.
  3. Brush a thin layer of consome on the dough.
  4. Cover the dough with cheese, edge to edge.
  5. Scatter shredded birria evenly across the cheese.
  6. Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, until cheese is bubbling and crust is browned.
  7. Remove from oven and let it rest for 2 minutes, then add chopped onion and cilantro.
  8. Serve with warm consome for dipping.

Notes

For a crisp crust, drain excess juices from the birria meat and avoid overloading the pizza.
