How to Make Pizza Pot Pie Skillet
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground Italian sausage until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
Add chopped onion, minced garlic, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender.
Pour in pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Simmer for a few minutes until heated through.
Remove skillet from heat and stir in mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and black olives if using.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roll out pizza dough on a floured surface until large enough to cover the skillet.
Pour filling into the skillet. Drape rolled-out dough over filling, tucking edges down.
Brush dough with beaten egg and sprinkle with dried oregano.
Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until crust is golden brown.
Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm.
Optional: Garnish with fresh basil for extra flavor.
Customize with your favorite toppings or go meatless for a vegetarian option.
