Skillet Tortilla Pizza

Ingredients

• Flour tortillas
• Grated mozzarella cheese
• Tomato sauce
• Fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced

Directions

1. Warm a large cast iron skillet or griddle over medium high to high heat. Set a flour tortilla right in the middle.
2. As soon as the tortilla starts ballooning or bubbling, turn it over and lower the heat to medium low. Use the point of a knife or the tines of a fork to poke the bubbles so they settle down a bit.
3. Scatter grated mozzarella over the tortilla in a light, even layer. When the cheese has melted about half-way, add a thin coating of tomato sauce, smoothing it across the cheese with the back of the spoon. Finish with a little more cheese over the sauce.
4. When the tortilla’s edges have taken on some color, which means the underside is browning nicely, take the pan off the heat.
5. Put a lid over the pan for about a minute or so, letting the warmth still in the pan soften and melt the cheese on top.
6. Add the fresh sliced basil. Slide the pizza onto a plate, then cut it with a pizza wheel or a sharp knife.
7. Serve immediately.
