Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 8 oz Fresh mozzarella cheese
- 4 slices Prosciutto
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 cup Fresh arugula
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.
Step 2
Dust your work surface with the flour. Roll out the pizza dough to a 12-inch circle using a rolling pin, adding more flour as needed to prevent sticking.
Step 3
Transfer the rolled dough onto a parchment paper-lined pizza peel or baking sheet.
Step 4
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 5
Tear the fresh mozzarella cheese into pieces and distribute evenly over the tomato sauce.
Step 6
Place the slices of prosciutto on top of the cheese.
Step 7
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
Step 8
If using a pizza stone, carefully slide the pizza with the parchment paper onto the stone. If not, place the baking sheet directly into the oven.
Step 9
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Step 11
Top the cooled pizza with fresh arugula and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 12
Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for some heat, if desired.
Step 13
Slice into 8 pieces and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade prosciutto pizza!
