Notes
Tip
The meat contains a lot of moisture that you will need to drain off after it is cooked.
Tip
I like to serve this with a salad as it’s a little too much meat to have alone.
Variation
You can choose different toppings instead of the tomato and mozzarella we use. Try adding salami, ham or even mushrooms and olives for a variation.
