- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium high. Add the tofu, and cook stirring occasionally until it starts to brown and get crispy. This make take 10-15 minutes. Take off the heat.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Cut the dough in half to make 2 small pizzas. Roll out on a floured surface, pretty thin either round or rectangular. Place on a pizza pan or sheet pan that has non stick spray.
- Cover the pizza dough in fig jam, then spread the tofu chorizo over the top. Bake at 450 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
