Ingredients

Scale
  1. 1 pound prepared fresh pizza dough
  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided (1 tablespoon to brush the dough and 1 tablespoon to cook the ground beef)
  3. 1 pound lean ground beef
  4. 1 cup small diced yellow onion, divided (¾ cup for the beef, ¼ cup for toppings)
  5. 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  6. 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  7. ½ teaspoon salt
  8. ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  9. 2½ cups shredded yellow American cheese (from an 8-ounce piece sliced at the deli counter)
  10. 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  11. â…“ cup hamburger-sliced dill pickles, patted dry
  12. â…“ cup bottled Thousand Island dressing
  13. 2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly spray a 15 to 16-inch round pizza pan with non-stick spray.
  • Roll or stretch your pizza dough to 14 inches and place it on the prepared pan. Poke holes in the dough with a fork, leaving about a ½-inch border around the edges.
  • Brush the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and bake for 15 minutes. Once par-baked, set aside to cool.
  • While the dough bakes, cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining olive oil, ¾ cup diced onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned. Drain excess grease with a slotted spoon.
  • Spoon the drained beef mixture onto the par-baked dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust. Top with shredded American cheese.
  • Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 7-11 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden.
  • Remove the pizza and top with shredded lettuce, the remaining diced onion, pickle slices, Thousand Island dressing, and sesame seeds.
  • Slice and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef for a less greasy result.
  • Customize toppings with extra pickles or onions for more Big Mac flavor.
  • Serve with extra Thousand Island dressing on the side for dipping.
