Ingredients
Mexican Bubble Pizza
- 1 lb. ground beef cooked and drained
- kosher salt season to taste
- ½ cup red enchilada sauce or taco sauce or salsa
- 1 16 oz tube of refrigerated canned biscuits
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican, Fiesta, your favorite blend)
Lime Crema
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 1 fresh lime
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
Instructions
- Lightly spray a 9 x 13 casserole dish, an 8 x 8 pan, or whatever size of oven-safe dish you are using and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Heat your cast iron skillet and once it’s heated to medium heat, add in your ground beef. Season with kosher salt and cook until the meat is cooked thoroughly, which is until it’s no longer pink and registers at 160 degrees with a meat thermometer. Drain the hamburger if needed and add in the red enchilada sauce.
- While the ground beef is cooking, using a sharp knife, quarter the biscuits and add them into your prepared pan(s) in a single layer.
- Place them in the oven for approximately 5 to 10 minutes or until they are starting to lightly brown.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and top with the seasoned ground beef. Place back in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
- While the Bubble Pizza is baking, prepare the Lime Crema.
- To make the crema, in a medium-sized bowl, add in the sour cream, garlic powder, lime juice, and salt. Stir the ingredients together. Taste the crema and if it’s to your liking, add it to a serving bowl, top with the zest of the lime and place it on the table. If you feel it needs more seasoning, add in more garlic powder, salt, or lime.
- When the timer goes off, remove the Bubble Pizza from the oven, top with the shredded cheese, and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and serve.
