Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb. store-bought pizza dough, room temperature
2 medium zucchini (about 1 lb. total), thinly shaved lengthwise on a mandoline or with a vegetable peeler
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
2 cups whole-milk fresh ricotta (about 1 lb.)
1 cup basil leaves
5 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, divided
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, divided
4 oz. thinly sliced soppressata

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Brush an 18x13" rimmed baking pan with 1 Tbsp. oil. Gently stretch dough to a 16x12" oval and place in prepared baking sheet, pressing dough into edges of pan. (If dough springs back, cover with plastic wrap and let rest 10 minutes before stretching again.) Brush dough with 1 Tbsp. oil, then bake until golden and dry, 15-18 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, whisk ricotta, 1 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a medium bowl until mixture looks a little whipped and fluffy. (If your ricotta is on the drier side, add another tablespoonful of oil.) 3. Spread ricotta mixture over crust, leaving about a 1/2" margin on all sides. Top with a single layer of soppressata, overlapping slightly if needed. Bake pizza until ricotta mixture is golden and edges of soppressata are curled up and crisp, about 15 minutes. 4. Whisk shallot, vinegar, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a small bowl. Gently toss zucchini, tomatoes, and basil in a large bowl. Drizzle about one-third of the dressing over and toss again. Pile onto pizza with your hands. Drizzle remaining dressing over pizza and cut into slices.

SPRING ONION AND SALAMI SHEET-PAN PIZZA



Spring Onion and Salami Sheet-Pan Pizza image

Where I grew up, the only acceptable pizza was a deep-dish Chicago-style cheese fest. I didn't achieve true pizza nirvana until I moved to New York, home of thin-crust pies scattered with farmers' market loot at places like Roberta's in Brooklyn and Milkflower in Queens --meccas for family meetups with friends. We've since moved to another thin-crust pizza wasteland (except for glorious summer evenings at Westwind Orchard), but we still crave a pizza-night kind of affair: inexpensive, casual hangouts with friends that leave everyone satisfied, but not stuffed. The solution: making pizza at home. I'm no pizza wizard, so I embraced the deep-dish (or grandma-style) pie of my youth, only sexier (with nowhere near as much cheese). For the adults, this spicy, fennel and spicy sausage moment wins raves. A simpler cheese and broccoli version keeps small people happy -- and parents satisfied with the just-enough-vegetables vibe to let you kick back and feel you've done your job (use sweet Italian sausage only, and replace the fennel with broccoli, one for one).

Time 40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

One 28-ounce (794-gram) can whole peeled tomatoes (such as San Marzano), drained
2 anchovy fillets packed in oil, drained (optional)
2 garlic cloves
6 tablespoons (90 milliliters) olive oil
1/4 cup (3 grams) fresh basil leaves
Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
Fine sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup (60 milliliters) olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
Two 1-pound (455-gram) balls multigrain or plain pizza dough, at room temperature (see Cook's Note)
1 cup All-Purpose Red Sauce
2 1/2 cups (12 ounce) (200 grams) shredded mozzarella cheese
4 ounces (115 grams) salami, sopressata, or Italian sausage
1 small spring onion or fennel bulb, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed (optional)
1/2 cup (about 2 ounces) (15 grams) finely grated Parmesan or pecorino romano cheese
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
Fresh baby greens or herbs

Steps:

  • For the all-purpose red sauce: Pulse the tomatoes, anchovies (if using), garlic, oil, and basil in a food processor or blender until mostly smooth (some texture is okay); season with red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Makes 8 servings.
  • For the pizza: Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 525 degrees F (275 degrees C). If your oven only goes to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C), that's fine.
  • Coat a 13-by-18-inch (33-by-46-centimeter) baking sheet with the oil. Gently stretch the two balls of dough into an even layer, to reach into all four corners of the baking sheet, taking your time to stretch evenly with the seam meeting in the middle. Press the seam together to make one large sheet of dough. Spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top, sprinkle with the mozzarella, and top with salami, spring onion, fennel seeds (if using), and Parmesan.
  • Bake until crisp and brown on the bottom and around the edges, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with flaky salt. Top with the greens and drizzle lightly with more oil. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • For a crispy crust, preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible before baking the pizza.
  • Use a pizza stone or baking sheet to ensure the crust cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • If you're using a store-bought pizza crust, be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
  • If you're making your own pizza dough, be sure to knead it well and let it rise for at least 30 minutes before using it.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pizza. The crust should be golden brown and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Summer pizza with salami, zucchini, and tomatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a hot summer day. With its crispy crust, flavorful toppings, and refreshing summer flavors, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
