Description

A hearty and comforting deep dish pizza pot pie featuring a rich tomato sauce, Italian seasoned ground beef, vegetables, and a flaky pie crust baked to golden perfection.


Ingredients

Scale

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 cup diced green bell pepper
1 cup diced red bell pepper
1 cup sliced black olives
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (14-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust
1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir in sliced mushrooms, diced green and red bell peppers, and sliced black olives. Cook for 5 minutes until vegetables are tender.
Add dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Pour in crushed tomatoes and tomato sauce. Simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in shredded mozzarella and provolone cheeses until melted and well combined.
Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into a 9-inch deep dish pie pan, spreading it evenly.
Place the refrigerated pie crust over the filling, tucking the edges inside the pie pan. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal.
Brush the top of the pie crust with the beaten egg to achieve a golden brown finish.
Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
Bake the deep dish pizza pot pie in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
