Goat Cheese and Asparagus Pizza
- 1 recipe Pizza Dough
- 1/2 pound fresh asparagus
- 8 ounces Coach Farm Goat Cheese
- 1/2 cup good quality extra-virgin olive oil
- Preheat the griddle to 300 F. Cook the 4 pizza rounds for 30 seconds on each side.
- Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 500 F. Wash the asparagus and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
- Roast the asparagus in the hot oven until charred, about 9 minutes.
- Remove from the oven.
- When the asparagus are cool enough to touch, cut each stalk into 3 pieces.
- In a small bowl, mix the goat cheese and olive oil.
- Divide the goat cheese mixture between the 4 pizzas, making sure to leave a 3/4-inch rim around the pizza for the crust.
- Smooth the goat cheese so that the topping is only 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick.
- Scatter the asparagus over the pizzas and cook the pizzas on the griddle until the dough is done, but not brown, about 3 1/2 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
