Ingredients

• 1 ball (approximately 12-inch crust) Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
• 0.5 cup Thousand Island dressing
• 2 cups Shredded Swiss cheese
• 0.75 cup Cooked corned beef, thinly sliced or shredded
• 0.5 cup Sauerkraut, drained and patted dry
• 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.

Step 2

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or baking sheet.

Step 3

Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil to create a crisp base during baking.

Step 4

Spread the Thousand Island dressing evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Step 5

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the dressing.

Step 6

Distribute the cooked corned beef and sauerkraut over the cheese layer.

Step 7

Top with the remaining 1 cup of Swiss cheese and sprinkle with optional caraway seeds for authentic Reuben flavor.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven or pizza stone and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 10

Slice and serve the Reuben pizza warm. Enjoy!
