Cheese Burger Pizza

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 Steakhouse Elite Kobe Beef Burgers (or 1 pound ground beef)
¼ teaspoon Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
1 cup chopped onion
¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup ketchup
1 (12-inch) pre-baked pizza crust
1 plum tomato, chopped
3/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
10-12 dill pickle slice
Instructions:

  1. Place a large baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onions for about 5 minutes until soft, remove from skillet into a small dish.
  3. Sprinkle the burgers with salt and pepper and cook for about 3 minutes on each side until beef is browned (medium to medium rare). Remove pan from the heat and crumble the burgers or break into large chunks and set aside. (If using ground beef, cook and crumble until slightly pink/medium.)
  4. Combine mayonnaise and ketchup in a small bowl with a whisk, then spread the mixture over the pizza crust leaving a ½ inch border.
  5. Add the crumbled burger chunks, onions, tomatoes and sprinkle the mozzarella and Cheddar cheese over the top. Bake 8 minutes until the cheese is melted and lightly browned. Remove pizza from oven and let cool for a few minutes.
  6. Garnish the pizza with lettuce and dill pickle slices and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Cut pizza into 8 slices and serve.
