AmericanChicago-style deep dish pizza


Did you ever wonder about the "pie" in pizza pie? This dish will make that connection clear for you. With its 1½" tall crust cradling distinct layers of cheese, sausage, and tomatoes, this is definitely a knife-and-fork pizza PIE. We like to bake this in a big, 14" deep-dish pizza pan; it makes a spectacular presentation, right out of the oven. But if you don't have a big pan, feel free to use two 9" round cake pans.
