Pear Prosciutto Pizza
- 2 bartlett pears or 2 bosc pears, cut in 1/4 inch slices, core removed
- 12 small red onion, cut into rounds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 lb pizza dough
- 14 cup prepared pesto sauce
- 2 slices prosciutto, cut into thin strips
- 3 ounces goat cheese or 3 ounces gorgonzola, crumbled
- 12 cup lightly packed arugula leaf
- Preheat grill to medium.
- Brush pears and onions with olive oil.
- Place on grill and close lid.
- Grill, turning once, until grill marked and softened, about 3 minutes.
- Remove from grill and set aside.
- Meanwhile, on a lightly floured surface roll out dough to a 16x12 inch recrangle; transfer to a baking sheet.
- Brush dough with remaining oil and place oil side down, directly on grill.
- Grill, uncovered, until bubbles form on top and grill makds form on bottom, about 3 minutes, (do not worry if dough sags a bit when first placed on grill; as long as it has been preheated the dough will quickly stiffen).
- Use tongs to flip pizza; close lid and grill until bubbly and underside is browned, 3 minutes, transfer back to baking sheet.
- Spread pesto lightly over top of pizza.
- Top with pear slices, onion rings, prosciutto and crumbled cheese,
- Return pizza on the baking sheet back to grill.
- Cover and grill just until cheese softens, 2-4 minutes.
- Remove from grill and transfer to cutting board.
- Sprinkle with arugula, slice and serve.
- TIP: if you want to make this recipe indoors, follow the instructions for the pears and onions using a grill pan over medium-high heat and bake prepared pizza on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet in the bottom third of a 450F oven until crust is cooked underneath and the cheese is melted and bubbling 15-20 minutes.
