Roasted Fresh Corn, Poblano, and Cheddar Pizza

Jacob Bailey

Adapted from Cooking Light

Ingredients

  • 2 poblano chiles
  •  Cooking spray
  • 2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 4 ears)
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 cup l% low-fat milk
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Pizza dough (see recipe below, or premade crust/dough works too) 
  • 2 tablespoons fat-free sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Preparation

Pizza dough recipe (make this first, as dough needs about an hour to rise)

    Ingredients

    • 3 1/2 to 4 cups bread flour, plus more for rolling (Chef's Note: Using bread flour will give you a much crisper crust. If you can't find bread flour, you can substitute it with all-purpose flourwhich will give you a chewier crust.)
    • 1 teaspoon sugar
    • 1 envelope instant dry yeast
    • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
    • 1 1/2 cups water, 110 degrees F
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus 2 teaspoons

    Dough directions

    Combine the bread flour, sugar, yeast and kosher salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and combine. While the mixer is running, add the water and 2 tablespoons of the oil and beat until the dough forms into a ball. If the dough is sticky, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the doughcomes together in a solid ball. If the dough is too dry, add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a smooth, firm ball.

    Grease a large bowl with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, add the dough, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in a warm area to let it double in size, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into 2 equal pieces. Cover each with a clean kitchen towel orplastic wrap and let them rest for 10 minutes.

    1. Preheat broiler.
    2. Place poblano chiles on a foil-lined baking sheet; broil 10 minutes or until blackened and charred, turning occasionally. Place in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel and discard skins, seeds, and stems. Chop peppers.
    3. Lower oven temperature to 425°.
    4. In Large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add corn, green onions, and garlic; sauté 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir in milk; cook over medium heat 2 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates. Cool slightly. Place egg whites, egg, salt, and black pepper in a bowl; stir with a whisk. Stir in poblano peppers, corn mixture, and cheese.
    5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll dough onto parchment paper; pat dough to form a 13 x 8-inch rectangle. Spread corn mixture over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold 1 inch of dough over corn mixture. Bake at 425° for 12 minutes or until set. Serve with sour cream; sprinkle with cilantro.
