Number Of Ingredients 5

Extra-virgin olive oil, for pans and drizzling
Quick Basic Pizza Dough
6 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
10 very thin slices (about 1/4 pound) prosciutto di Parma
10 leaves arugula (about 1 ounce), well washed and dried

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Lightly oil two 14-inch pizza pans; set aside.
  • Divide dough in half. Cover one half with plastic wrap while working with the other. Working on a lightly floured surface, use fingers to flatten and stretch half the dough into a rough 8-inch circle. Transfer to one of the prepared pans or onto a pizza peel. Continue pressing dough outward until it just fits inside rim of pan or reaches almost to the edge of the stone. Dough should be less than 1/4 inch thick. Drizzle with olive oil. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Sprinkle each pizza with half the mozzarella. Transfer both to oven, and bake until golden and crusty, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and top with prosciutto and arugula. Drizzle with olive oil. Serve immediately.

Grilled Pizza with Prosciutto, Ricotta and Arugula image

Store-bought pizza dough is the basis for this super-fast and pretty pizza. It takes just minutes to grill the dough, and then all you have to do is pile on the no-cook toppings. Serve slices as an appetizer or first course, or add a platter of ripe sliced tomatoes to make a light summer meal.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lemon
8 ounces ricotta, at room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound frozen pizza dough, thawed
All-purpose flour, for sprinkling
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for oiling the grill grates
6 ounces prosciutto
2 cups baby arugula (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Finely grate the zest of the lemon; cut the lemon in half and reserve. Stir together the ricotta, lemon zest, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Set aside.
  • Divide the pizza dough into 2 balls. Sprinkle the flour on a clean flat surface and roll each ball into an oval about 14 inches long, 6 or 7 inches across and between 1/8 and 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the crusts to the prepared baking sheet. Brush both sides of each crust with olive oil, about 1 tablespoon per side, and lightly sprinkle with salt.
  • Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the crusts until they start to puff and distinct grill marks appear, about 1 minute. Flip and cook until just cooked through, an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Discard the used parchment paper and put the finished crusts on the baking sheet.
  • Immediately top each crust evenly with prosciutto. Place small dollops of the ricotta mixture over the prosciutto. Toss the arugula in a bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the juice of one of the lemon halves (reserve the other half for another use). Season with salt and pepper. Divide the arugula between the pizzas and serve.

PROSCIUTTO AND ARUGULA PIZZA



Prosciutto and Arugula Pizza image

Categories     Tomato     Appetizer     Bake     Mozzarella     Arugula     Prosciutto     Gourmet

Yield Makes one 9-inch pizza

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup small to medium arugula leaves
2 ounces mozzarella (preferably fresh)
all-purpose flour for dusting
Pizza Dough for one 9-inch pizza
1/2 cup Pizza Sauce
3 very thin slices prosciutto

Steps:

  • At least 45 minutes before baking pizza, put a pizza stone or 4 to 6 unglazed "quarry" tiles arranged close together on oven rack in lowest position in oven and preheat oven to highest setting (500°-550°F).
  • Trim any tough stems from arugula and thinly slice cheese. On a lightly floured surface pat out dough evenly with your fingers, keeping hands flat and lifting and turning dough over several times, into a 9-inch round. (Do not handle dough more than necessary. If dough is sticky, dust it lightly with flour.)
  • Dust a baker's peel or rimless baking sheet with flour and carefully transfer dough to it. Jerk peel or baking sheet once or twice and, if dough is sticking, lift dough and sprinkle flour underneath it, reshaping dough if necessary. Working quickly, top dough with sauce, spreading with back of a spoon to within 1/2 inch of edge. Arrange mozzarella slices evenly over sauce.
  • Line up far edge of peel or baking sheet with far edge of stone or tiles and tilt peel or baking sheet, jerking it gently to start pizza moving. Once edge of pizza touches stone or tiles, carefully pull back peel or baking sheet, completely transferring pizza to stone or tiles (do not move pizza). Bake pizza 6 to 7 minutes, or until dough is crisp and browned, and transfer with a metal spatula to a cutting board. Scatter arugula over pizza and arrange prosciutto slices on top.
  • Cut pizza into wedges and serve immediately.

Categories     Cheese     Dairy     Garlic     Leafy Green     Pork     Bake     Quick & Easy     Prosciutto     Fontina     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb pizza dough, thawed if frozen
3/4 lb well-chilled Italian Fontina, any rind discarded
1 garlic clove, forced through a garlic press
1/4 lb loosely packed baby arugula (4 cups)
1/4 lb thinly sliced prosciutto
Extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling
Freshly ground black pepper
Special Equipment
a 17- by 14-inch sheet of parchment paper

Steps:

  • Put a large heavy baking sheet (17 by 14 inches) on lowest rack of oven, then preheat oven to 500°F.
  • Meanwhile, roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin, stretching corners with your hands to form a 16- by 13-inch rectangle. (Dough will be easier to roll out as it warms.) Transfer to a large tray lined with sheet of parchment paper. Lightly prick dough all over with a fork, then slide dough (on parchment) from tray onto hot baking sheet. Bake until top is puffed and pale golden in patches, 6 to 10 minutes. (Prick any large bubbles with a fork and flatten.)
  • While crust bakes, shred cheese in a food processor fitted with medium shredding disk (you should have 3 cups).
  • Remove crust from oven and brush all over with crushed garlic, then sprinkle evenly with cheese. Bake pizza until edge of crust is deep golden and cheese is bubbling and golden in patches, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, then scatter arugula over pizza and drape prosciutto over arugula. Drizzle with oil and coarsely grind pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
