Mexican street corn, or elotes, is a special treat south of the border. We've taken the sweet corn, cheese, and lime and placed it on the best vehicle for flavor we know, a pizza. Each bite will give you that sweet elotes delight but fill you up as an honest-to-gosh American pizza does. Fusion at its finest. Tip: To remove the core of a tomato, carefully making a circle with your knife around the stem, then remove circle.

Meatlovers! If using protein, pat dry and cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. If using whole chicken breasts, pat dry and, on a clean cutting board, cut into 1” dice. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. If using ground beef, break up until no pink remains and beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. If using shrimp, cook until shrimp reach minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes per side. If using steak strips, separate into a single layer, pat dry, and coarsely chop. Stir occasionally until steak reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes. Add to pizza as desired.
