Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (about 12-inch pizza) pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 3 ounces goat cheese
- 4 ounces (torn into small pieces) fresh mozzarella
- 4 slices prosciutto
- 1 cup (loosely packed) arugula
- 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet in the oven to heat.
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a piece of parchment paper for easier handling.
Brush the entire surface of the dough with olive oil, then evenly spread the minced garlic over it.
Crumble the goat cheese and tear the fresh mozzarella into small pieces, distributing them evenly over the pizza dough.
Carefully slide the pizza (along with the parchment paper) onto the preheated stone or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately layer the prosciutto slices over the top.
Scatter the arugula evenly over the pizza, then drizzle with balsamic glaze.
Season with a light sprinkle of salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste.
Slice the pizza into wedges and serve warm as a perfect complement to your wine selection.
