Directions

Step 1Make the rice: In a 10” oven-safe skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add garlic, onion, pepper, salt, red pepper flakes, and Italian seasoning, and cook until garlic turns golden, 2 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook until slightly caramelized, about 1 minute. Add nutmeg, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and rice, and cook until rice begins to turn slightly crispy, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to the lowest setting, then stir in ½ cup Parmesan and sesame until well combined.

Step 2Preheat oven to 400°. Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together all sauce ingredients until well combined.

Step 3Assemble the “pizza”: Spread ½ cup tomato sauce over fried rice in an even layer, then sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan evenly across, and top with pepperoni.

Step 4Transfer skillet to the oven and bake until cheese is melty and edges are golden, about 10 minutes.

Step 5Garnish with basil before serving.
