Ingredients

12 oz refrigerated fresh pizza dough

4 oz link Italian turkey sausage

1 cup thinly sliced fennel bulb

1 tsp cornmeal

1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil

⅓ cup part-skim ricotta

1 tsp minced fresh garlic

⅓ cup thinly sliced red onion

2 tsp fennel seeds

½ tsp crushed red pepper

½ tsp freshly ground black pepper

⅛ tsp kosher salt

Directions

Place a pizza stone or heavy baking sheet in oven. Preheat oven to 500° (keep pizza stone or baking sheet in oven as it preheats). Let pizza dough stand at room temperature, covered, while oven preheats.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove casing from sausage. Add sausage to pan; cook 4 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring to crumble. Add fennel bulb; cook 4 minutes or until tender.

Roll pizza dough into a 16-inch oval on a lightly floured surface. Carefully remove pizza stone from oven. Sprinkle cornmeal over pizza stone; place dough on pizza stone. Brush dough evenly with oil. Sprinkle sausage mixture evenly over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Combine ricotta and garlic in a small bowl; top pizza with teaspoonfuls of ricotta mixture. Sprinkle red onion and remaining ingredients evenly over pizza. Bake at 500° for 11 minutes or until golden. Cut into 8 slices.
