Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 pinches red pepper flakes (or to taste)
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes, fire roasted, diced and drained
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 8 flour tortillas (8 inch)
  • 1 lb smoked mozzarella cheese, ball, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup fresh basil, shredded

Directions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat; add olive oil to the skillet.

  2. Add in the garlic and red pepper flakes; cook for 1 minute, then add in the tomatoes.

  3. Season with oregano, salt, and pepper; simmer the tomatoes for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

  4. Heat another skillet over medium heat; add a drizzle of olive oil and a flour tortilla.

  5. Cover the tortilla with an even layer of sliced cheese; top with ¼ of the tomatoes. Scatter ¼ of the basil over the tomatoes.

  6. Set a second tortilla in place on top; cook for 2 minutes on side one, drizzle the top of the tortilla with a touch of olive oil and carefully flip the pizza-dilla.

  7. Cook for 2 minutes more, or until golden and crisp on the flip side.

  8. Remove, cut into 4 pieces, and serve.

  9. Repeat this with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more pizza-dillas.
