Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crab Rangoon Pizza
  1. Begin by rolling out your fresh pizza dough on a lightly floured surface until it reaches about 14 inches in diameter. If desired, sprinkle a thin layer of cornmeal on your pizza pan for added crunch and flavor, then transfer the dough to the pan, ensuring it fits snugly.
  2. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place the prepared dough in the oven and par-bake it for about 5 minutes, or until it is lightly golden around the edges.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine 6 ounces of softened cream cheese, 5 ounces of crab meat, and ½ cup of chopped green onions. Add 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce to enhance the filling's umami flavor. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined and creamy.
  4. Remove the par-baked crust from the oven and carefully spread the creamy crab mixture evenly over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges. Layer your favorite amount of mozzarella cheese and sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
  5. Sprinkle crunchy wonton strips generously over the top of your assembled pizza.
  6. Return the assembled Crab Rangoon Pizza to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-15 minutes.
  7. Once your pizza is baked, let it cool for a minute. Drizzle chili sauce over the top for that sweet and spicy kick, then slice and serve.
