Moving to San Antonio turned me into a certified chorizo lover. I typically use it in my low-carb breakfast tacos or my chorizo cheese “fries” (that are really turnips) recipe. I recently had chorizo on pizza from a local restaurant. It was absolutely divine, but I knew that I wanted to try it using a different flavor profile. It was a meat lovers pizza, and while it was good, chorizo seemed to be tossed in as an afterthought amongst a sea of other toppings. We can do better than that, right?

For my pizza, I wanted the distinct flavor of Mexican chorizo to truly shine. And, with this chorizo lime pizza – shine it does! The Oaxaca cheese is the perfect touch and the fresh basil brings that familiar pizza essence that we all know and love.
After baking the pizza, I finish it off with fresh cilantro, lime juice, and Trechas SaLimon Powder. If you’re unable to find Salimon Powder, lime salt will do! You may even choose to use fresh lime zest atop your pizza.
This is a cheesy, spicy, delicious dish and the best part is that it’s low-carb and keto friendly. Let’s get into the details.

After topping the pizza, place it back in the 400 oven for ten minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and starts to brown.
That’s it! As usual, try it out and let me know what you think! If you make this pizza, don’t forget to tag me on Instagram. And while you’re at it, feel free to join my IG family. I’d love to have you.

Hot Chorizo Mexican Pizza
Add eggs, salt, basil, and garlic to the bowl and stir well until one cohesive dough forms. Use hands to form the dough into a ball.
On a parchment paper-lined baking sheet place the ball of dough in the center, and use either your hands or a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a flat circular crust.Made with a Cholula Hot Sauce pizza sauce, this homemade Mexican Chili Lime Chorizo Pizza is a tasty and easy meal for any day of the week.
I can’t believe this is the first pizza recipe on the blog. Ever. What is wrong with me? Oh wait, I remember. I don’t normally have the self control to make a pizza, take a ton of photos and THEN eat it. I usually just jump right in when it’s hot and fresh out the oven.
Chili Lime Chorizo Pizza
This time I summoned every ounce of willpower I had and I waited. I held off on eating this amazing Chili Lime Chorizo Pizza right away just so I could share it with you. And I know you’ll love the results.
First things first, you’ve got to have a good crust. After testing out about 4 different crust recipes, I finally made one that I absolutely loved that will definitely become my standard pizza crust recipe from now on. Everyone has their own personal preference on the type of pizza crust they prefer, so I recommend testing out a few recipes and finding one you like and sticking to it.
This particular crust recipe is nice and doughy, but not too thick. It’s not a thin and crispy crust, because that’s not my favorite. And it’s definitely not deep dish. It’s right in the middle and it’s juuuuust right. I added some garlic powder, oregano and salt to it because I didn’t want it to be boring and bland. No cardboard crust here.
Corn Cilantro Jalapeño Pizza
Next, you’ve got to have the right cheese. I decided to go mostly classic by using freshly sliced mozzarella. You really just can’t go wrong with mozzarella on a pizza. It melts perfectly, compliments the pizza sauce perfectly and is just really beautiful.
And because I do love me some Mexican food, I also sprinkled on some cotija cheese, a salty crumbly cheese that’s almost like feta, but wayyyy more intense.
Most important is the chili lime pizza sauce. The secret ingredient? Cholula Chili Lime Hot Sauce! While the recipe doesn’t call for a ton of it, the amount that is in the sauce gives it a nice chili lime flavor that goes really well the the spicy chorizo sausage and the salty cotija cheese. Plus, Cholula is one of my FAVORITE hot sauces and I love putting it on everything.

Since the flavors in the pizza sauce and chorizo are a bit darker and complex, I wanted to add in a touch of brightness to balance everything out.
