Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch pizza) Pizza dough
- 2 cups (stems removed, leaves chopped) Swiss chard
- 1 cup (drained and chopped) Marinated artichoke hearts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 1.5 cups (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Red pepper flakes
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (for dusting) Cornmeal or flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Dust a pizza peel or a sheet of parchment paper with cornmeal or flour and place the rolled-out dough on top.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chopped Swiss chard to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, and set aside.
Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil evenly over the surface of the pizza dough.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Distribute the cooked Swiss chard and chopped artichoke hearts evenly over the cheese layer.
Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top.
Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
