→ Main Ingredients
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1/2 tsp dried oregano, divided
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 jar pizza sauce, divided
1 tube (13.8 ounces) refrigerated pizza dough
4 slices provolone cheese
2 ounces thin-sliced pepperoni (about 1/3 cup)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 Tbs butter, melted
2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese
Steps
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a large non-stick skillet, cook ground beef with 1/2 tsp oregano, garlic powder, and kosher salt until browned, stirring frequently. Drain any excess drippings.
Cool slightly and stir 1/3 cup of pizza sauce into the cooked beef.
Unroll the pizza dough onto a baking sheet with shallow sides.
Spread 1/2 cup pizza sauce down the center of the dough. Top with provolone cheese slices, pepperoni, cooked ground beef, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Cut the dough in 1-inch intervals along both sides, towards the filling. Bring the dough strips up and over the filling.
Brush the dough with melted butter and sprinkle Parmesan cheese and the remaining 1/8 tsp oregano over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dough is golden and baked through.
Heat the remaining pizza sauce and serve as a dipping sauce alongside the pizza bread.
