Salmon And Egg Pizza
A savory pizza combining flaky salmon, scrambled eggs, and melted mozzarella on a crispy crust, perfect for brunch or a hearty snack for seafood lovers.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Drain the salmon and sauté it with canola oil in a pan.
- Add diced onion and cook until the onion has wilted.
- Slightly beat the eggs and add them to the pan, stirring until the eggs begin to set.
- Remove the mixture from heat and spread it over the Boboli crust.
- Sprinkle crushed pepper and shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
- Bake in a 350°F oven until the cheese melts and the crust is crispy.
Tips & Substitutions
For a more flavorful twist, consider adding fresh herbs like dill or chives to the egg mixture. If you don't have Boboli crust, any pre-made pizza crust or flatbread will work well. You can also swap the salmon for canned tuna or even cooked shrimp for a different seafood experience. Adjust the crushed pepper to your preference for spice.
Serving Suggestions
This salmon and egg pizza is excellent on its own but can be complemented with a fresh side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal. Pair it with a light vinaigrette or serve alongside a slice of the Riviera Special for a delightful seafood-themed dinner. It also makes a great brunch option when served with mimosas.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover salmon and egg pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through. You can also use a microwave, but the crust may become soft rather than crispy.
