Chicago-style pizza, also known as deep dish pizza, has been rocking the pizza scene since it was supposedly created in 1943 at Pizzeria Uno in Chicago. With its thick crust encasing an oasis of cheese, tomato and sausage, it sets the standard. There is also the Stuffed Pizza, a tribute to the Italian Easter cake Scarciedda, and the Pan Pizza from Pizza Hut. We opted for the latter, with an exciting twist - a Pan Pizza with a tempting stuffed cheese crust, prepared in the Petromax Fire Skillet ft30.

Note de recette
Tips:
- For a crispier edge, leave the dough to rise a little longer.
- Add a little cream or sour cream for an even creamier sauce.
- For a heartier topping, add diced salami, ham or bacon.
