Weeknight dinners can be boring, mundane, and it's easy to get stuck in a rut. One of my tricks is keeping a Honeysuckle White marinated turkey tenderloin on hand at all times! Delicious, pre-marinated, turkey that elevates even the simpliest of meals to something special. Just like this roasted Turkey, Pistachio, and Burrata Pizza.

You know if you've read my blog for a while that I love a healthy weeknight dinner that is quick but also something that would be just as good for a dinner party.

Spoiler alert: that typically includes turkey on my shopping list! From Tailgate Walking Tacos to a Braised Tenderloin, its so versatile and the whole family enjoys it. 

Why You'll Love This Recipe

Feeding my people whole foods that will nourish their bodies and taste great is high priority for me. I can count on Honeysuckle White turkey products every single time. Here's why you're going to love this burrata pizza recipe...

  • It’s an easy choice for healthy protein because there are NO added hormones*,NO added steroids, & *NO growth-promoting antibiotics.
  • High quality turkey - something that I know is good for my family and I can feel good about where it came from. 
  • Unique flavor combo - I love trying new things and combining different textures and ingredients into familiar things my family already loves is an easy way to change up pizza night! 
  • Fun for the family - Speaking of family, making pizza together is an easy way to get some help in the kitchen. Have the kids roll out the flatbread dough and add all of the toppings.

Ingredients

Whether you just need to get a protein rich meal on the table or you need to serve a fancy appetizer, this burrata cheese pizza recipe is your ticket! Here's what you'll need for your easy homemade pizza with turkey! 

  • Honeysuckle White Turkey Tenderloin - I used rotiserrie flavor here but you definitely should check out all of their other flavors! 
  • Pizza dough - Grab pre made pizza dough at the store or get adventurous and make homemade pizza dough! I have a quick easy homemade pizza dough recipe here! 
  • Burrata Cheese - one of the stars of the show, burrata on pizza might just change your life! 
  • Shredd Mozzarella Cheese - because you can't have too much cheese on pizza right?! Make sure this is shredded and not the whole ball of fresh mozzarella. 
  • Pesto - this is what will serve as our pizza sauce and when combined with the roasted turkey tenderloin it is a delightful pesto burrata pizza. 
  • Pistachios - while this may seem like an odd addition, adding pistachios incorporates a crunchy element to the pizza with burrata. 
  • Red Pepper Flakes - I like a touch of heat to add one more layer to the flatbread, however you can omit this if you don't like heat. 
  • Red Onion - A thinly sliced red onion balances everything out with a milk flavor and a little freshness and I love the pop of purple on top!
  • Fresh basil - I love a couple of leaves of basil on top to finish it all!

More Turkey & Burrata Pizza Toppings:

Create tons of unique combinations with flavors and textures from these toppings:

  • Add Cherry tomatoes sliced on top give a pop of color and brightness to the dish and creates sort of a bruschetta burrata pizza!
  • Thinly sliced prosciutto would be a lovely addition because it gets super crispy when baked in the oven. Prosciutto burrata pizza is actually one of my favorite combinations! 
  • Infused Olive Oil could add some extra flavor and depth to the flatbread 

What Is Burrata Cheese Exactly?

Besides the delicious and sliced turkey tenderloin, burrata cheese is one of my favorite elements to this pizza recipe. 

You might actually be wondering, can you put burrata on pizza? If you've had it before you know it's more liquid-y than regular mozzarella but YES you can with the tips below. 

How is it different from mozzarella? While they look almost identical when you see them at the store, the burrata is actually a mozzarella shell stuffed with more shredded mozzarella soaked in cream! 

It's a uniquely rich and creamy cheese that is a ball of fresh mozzarella filled with shredded mozzarella soaked in cream (called stracciatella!). 

The result is a luscious ball of goodness that when you break it open, spills out the stracciatella & is great for sweet recipes too, like this Peach Strawberry Burrata Salade .

Step By Step Instructions

I promise you this recipe only sounds fancy, the steps to make it couldn't be easier! Starting with the pre-marinated tenderloin cuts down on your time tremendously and makes sure you have tons of flavor in each bite.

  1. Roast the tenderloin for 35-45 minutes at 375 degrees or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.  Use a meat thermometer to check! Remove and set aside on a cutting board to rest.  
  2. While you prepare the crust, place a pizza stone (or baking sheet) in the oven (or in your pizza oven) to pre-heat and turn the heat to 450 degrees for about 5 minutes. 
  3. Roll out your crust and place on a floured pizza peel or cutting board. 
  4. Carefully slide the flatbread crust onto the heated pizza stone and bake for 8 minutes.
  5. Thinly slice the cooked turkey tenderloin, red onion, and chop the pistachios.
  6. Remove the crust from the oven and top with pesto sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, red onion, turkey tenderloin and crushed pistachios. 
  7. Return this to the oven for approximately 5 minutes to melt the cheese and get the edges of the turkey crispy. 
  8. Remove the flatbread and tear the burrata cheese into large chunks. Add these to the top of the pizza and finish with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
  9. Slice into squares and enjoy! 

The Tips and Tricks

While the process is simple, the order of ingredients really does matter to the overall quality of the dish and ensures you get the best burrata pizza recipe. 

Fully cook the turkey tenderloin. I always use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of my proteins. For turkey, you will want to reach 165 degrees. 

Be sure to add the burrata cheese at the end as a topping and not before cooking. Since the burrata has the heavy cream in it, it would easily make for a soggy pizza. Instead, add it to the top before serving and you will be just fine! 

Don't skip heating the pizza stone. Preheating the oven with the pizza stone in it makes sure that it gets nice and hot so when the crust hits the stone, it starts cooking. This gives you a crispy crust that is perfect every time!

Substitutions

One thing that is so wonderful about our turkey flatbread here is that you can totally customize it to your liking! There are endless possibilties and here are some delicious subsitutions.

  • Try the McCormick® GrillMates® Montreal Turkey or Garlic & Herb Tenderloins. These flavors are so bold and would be delicious for this recipe. 
  • Homeade pizza crust could definitely make a difference here so if you are up for the challenge, swap in homemade dough for the storebought. 
  • Homemade pesto sauce is also an option! I have a great recipe for a dairy free pesto if you'd want to make your own. 

FAQ

Can I make the turkey tenderloin ahead of time?

Yes! This tenderloin keeps well in the fridge and you could make it up to a day ahead of time. 

Can I use burrata instead of mozzarella on pizza?

I would avoid swapping the mozzarella for burrata because when you cook burrata it can become watery and rubbery! 

Can I make this in a pizza oven?

Sure thing! Just don't forget to heat up your pizza stone in it! 

How to store turkey, pistachio, burrata pizza?

I like to put my slices in an airtight container and reheat in my air fryer for the perfect crust again!
