How to cook deliciously - Chorizo Pizza Bites

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

2. Stage

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo and cook, gently breaking it up after a couple minutes. Allow it to bubble, stirring infrequently, until most of the bubbles have stopped and sausage is firm. Remove from heat.

3. Stage

Place tomatoes into a bowl. Break into smaller pieces with the back of a fork, if desired.

4. Stage

Divide dough into 16 small pieces, flattening each into a small circle. Place each circle on prepared baking sheet. Divide tomatoes and then the chorizo among the circles. Top with shredded Monterey Jack and crumbled cotija cheese.

5. Stage

Bake in preheated oven until dough is golden brown and cheese has melted, 8 to 15 minutes. Check after 8 minutes to ensure chorizo is not burning.

6. Stage

Top with minced cilantro leaves.
