Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (approximately 12 oz) Pizza dough
- 1 medium Russet potato
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 4 ounces Smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons Capers
- 1 small (thinly sliced) Red onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons (for rolling dough) All-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a baking stone or sheet on the middle rack to heat.
Wash and peel the potato, then use a mandoline or sharp knife to slice it into very thin rounds (about 1/8-inch thick).
In a small bowl, toss the potato slices with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper to coat evenly. Set aside.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or divide it into two smaller rounds for individual pizzas.
Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough onto a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the cream cheese evenly across the surface of the dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer over the cream cheese. Sprinkle the minced garlic over the potatoes.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the potatoes and transfer the parchment paper with the assembled pizza onto the hot baking stone or sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the potatoes are tender and slightly crisp on the edges.
Carefully remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.
Top the pizza with slices of smoked salmon, capers, red onion, and chopped dill.
Slice and serve immediately for a fresh and flavorful twist on pizza night!
