Sausage, Red Onion, and Wild Mushroom Pizza

This sausage, red onion, and wild mushroom pizza is a sophisticated twist on a classic Italian favourite. By pressing fresh rosemary, crushed chillies, and hard cheese directly into the dough before rolling, every bite is infused with a deep, savoury flavour. The combination of spicy Italian sausage and mixed wild mushrooms provides a meaty, satisfying texture that elevates this from a simple snack to a restaurant-quality meal.

As a high-protein dinner option, this dish is perfect for refuelling after a busy day or serving at a casual weekend gathering. The use of shop-bought dough makes it incredibly accessible for a midweek treat, while the fresh toppings ensure it remains light and nutritious. Serve it alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed tenderstem broccoli for a well-balanced and comforting homemade feast.

How to make Sausage, Red Onion, and Wild Mushroom Pizza

Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 232°C. Lightly flour 2 baking sheets. Place dough on work surface; let stand until room temperature, about 20 minutes. Divide dough in half. Press and stretch each piece out on lightly floured surface to 5-inch round. Sprinkle each with 40g Piave cheese, 3/4 teaspoons rosemary, and 1/4 teaspoons crushed red pepper; sprinkle with coarse salt. Roll each piece of dough out to 10-inch round, pressing in seasonings. Transfer dough rounds to prepared baking sheets.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage. Sauté until brown, breaking into 1/2-inch pieces with back of spoon, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer sausage to bowl. Add onion to skillet. Sauté until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes; transfer to plate. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoons oil to skillet. Add mushrooms and remaining 3/4 teaspoons rosemary; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté until brown, about 5 minutes. Leaving 1/2-inch plain border, top each dough round with 120g mozzarella, then onion, sausage, and mushrooms.

Bake until crust bottoms are crisp and brown, reversing sheets after 10 minutes, about 20 minutes total. Using large spatula, transfer pizzas to work surface. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons mozzarella, then parsley, if desired.

Pizza-wheel cutters can drag toppings, so use a large chef's knife to cut pizzas into wedges.
