Ingredients

• 500 grams ground beef
• 300 grams ground pork
• 250 grams bacon
• 250 grams spicy Italian sausage, casing removed
• 300 grams cooked shredded chicken
• 100 grams pepperoni slices
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 400 grams crushed tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 250 milliliters chicken broth
• 300 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
• 100 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with a drizzle of olive oil and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground beef, ground pork, and spicy Italian sausage to the skillet. Cook until the meats are browned and fully cooked, breaking them up with a spoon as they cook, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 5

Drain any excess grease from the pan and return it to the heat. Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and let simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet, chop into bite-sized pieces, and set aside.

Step 7

In the prepared casserole dish, spread half of the meat and tomato mixture evenly across the bottom. Layer half of the shredded chicken, chopped bacon, and pepperoni slices on top.

Step 8

Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the meat layer, followed by half of the Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

Repeat the layering process with the remaining meat mixture, shredded chicken, bacon, pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese.

Step 10

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.
