Ingredients
- 1 piece Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 8 ounces Fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 4 ounces Prosciutto, thinly sliced
- 2 cups Arugula
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or a baking sheet inside to heat.
On a lightly floured surface, stretch and roll the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the rolled dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil over the surface of the dough.
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic and remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Spread this mixture evenly over the oiled dough.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust.
Arrange the mozzarella slices evenly over the sauce.
Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the top.
Gently slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a moment.
Top the pizza with fresh basil leaves and layer with prosciutto slices.
In a bowl, toss the arugula with a drizzle of olive oil and the salt and pepper.
Scatter the dressed arugula on top of the pizza.
Slice and serve the pizza immediately for the best taste and texture.
