Cuisinart 89220 White Pizza with Prosciutto, Arugula Tomatoes, Tomato, Onion and Bacon Pizza

White Pizza with Prosciutto, Arugula

and Tomatoes

Makes one 12-inch pizza (8 servings)

1/3 recipe pizza dough (page 24)

1tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1–1½ ounces (about 4 to 6 slices) prosciutto, halved

3medium garlic cloves, finely chopped, divided

1 cup halved grape tomatoes

2 cups packed arugula

1½ cups ricotta

½ cup grated Parmesan (about 2 ounces) pinch sea or kosher salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the Cuisinart® Convection Toaster Oven Broiler to 425°F on the bake setting with the rack in position A.

Roll out dough into a 12-inch circle.* Brush the outer edge of the dough with olive oil. Bake in preheated oven for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until dough is lightly golden.

While dough is baking, preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the prosciutto. Sauté until crisp; remove and reserve.

Add 2∕3 of the garlic chopped cloves to the hot pan. Sauté until fragrant, and then add the tomatoes. When tomatoes just begin to soften, stir in the arugula, about ¼ cup at a time. Cook until the arugula is wilted; remove and reserve.

In a medium-sized bowl, mix the ricotta, Parmesan, remaining garlic, salt and pepper until well combined. Reserve.

Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the partially baked pizza dough. Top the ricotta with the arugula mixture and then finish with the prosciutto.

Bake pizza in preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the dough is nicely browned and the cheese is bubbling on top.

Remove the pizza from the oven. Cut into slices and serve immediately.

*Using a pizza mesh makes forming the perfect pizza much easier. If you have one, it is advisable to spray it with nonstick cooking spray before stretching dough.
