Ingredients (7)
- Smear hoisin sauce on your cooled pizza crust and top it off with a thinly sliced half-moon red onion.
- Toss on a quarter pound of thinly sliced smoked duck breast (or opt for one of our alternatives).
- Sprinkle on 3 ounces of shredded Monterey Jack cheese (almost a cup).
- Finish with a handful of coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves.
- Want an extra kick? Add a dab of red pepper flakes (if you're feelin' spicy).
Instructions
- Line the oven with foil, preheat it to 450°F, and get ready to roll.
- Dollop pizza crust with hoisin sauce and layer on red onion. Arrange the duck breast in a delightful circle and cover it with cheese.
- Place the pizza directly on the oven rack to bake until it's golden and crisp - expect about 5 to 7 minutes. Dress it up with cilantro and red pepper flakes (if you feel like it) and slice into manageable squares (if serving as appetizers). Chomp down and enjoy!
Hungry for More? Grab yourself an Adelsheim Pinot Gris from Oregon. The smoky duck and hoisin usually pair up with a Pinot Noir, but the zesty cilantro calls for a white with herbal undertones. Pinot Gris is just the ticket, blending nicely with this rich, vibrant dish.
