How to Make Pizza Cpk Inspired Goat Cheese Roasted Red Pepper

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast 1 large red bell pepper, whole, directly on the oven rack for 30-40 minutes, or until the skin is blackened and blistered. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it cool completely. Once cool, peel, seed, and chop the pepper.
  2. While the pepper roasts, caramelize 1 medium yellow onion: thinly slice the onion and sauté in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown.
  3. Prepare your pizza crust (store-bought or homemade). Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce (about 1/4 cup) evenly over the crust.
  4. Sprinkle 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese evenly over the sauce.
  5. Top with the roasted red pepper, followed by the caramelized onions.
  6. Add any desired additional toppings (e.g., fresh basil).
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
