Fresh Tomato Pizza With Arugula And Prosciutto
Makes Two 14-Inch Pizzas, Serving 4 To 6
Ingredients
1 recipe CLASSIC PIZZA DOUGH
1 pound tomatoes, cored and sliced thin
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
4 ounces whole-milk mozzarella cheese, shredded (1 cup)
2 ounces (2 cups) baby arugula
Instructions
- One hour before baking, adjust oven rack to lowest position, set baking stone on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees.
- Transfer dough to lightly floured counter, divide in half, and cover with greased plastic wrap. Use fingertips to gently flatten 1 piece of dough into 8-inch disk (keep other piece covered). Using hands, gently stretch disk into 14-inch round, working along outer edge and giving disk quarter turns. Transfer dough to piece of parchment paper and reshape as needed.
- Arrange half of tomatoes in concentric circles over dough and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with 4 teaspoons oil. Slide parchment with pizza onto pizza peel, then slide onto baking stone. Bake until crust begins to brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Remove pizza from oven by sliding parchment back onto pizza peel, close oven door, and top pizza evenly with half of prosciutto and 1⁄2 cup mozzarella. Return pizza to baking stone and continue baking until cheese is just melted, about 3 minutes longer. Meanwhile, toss arugula with remaining 2 teaspoons oil. Transfer pizza to cutting board and discard parchment. Sprinkle with half of arugula, slice, and serve immediately. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to shape, top, and bake second pizza.
