This is my version of a fabulous pizza I had at the Flatbread Pizza Company. It's one of my absolute favorites and I even make it on the grill when it gets too hot to turn on the oven in the summertime. It also makes a great appetizer if sliced into small pieces. Using the combination of the non stick foil and the oven rack ensures a crispy crust that wont get stuck to the pan. Ingredients:
1 lb pizza dough (store bought) |
1 large onion, sliced and caramelized |
2 tablespoons minced garlic |
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese |
4 ounces goat cheese |
1/3 cup sliced roasted red pepper |
1/4 cup kalamata olive, pitted and chopped |
1 tablespoon oregano |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Line a large edgeless pan or pizza stone with non stick foil.
3. Stretch out pizza dough.
4. Mix olive oil, garlic, salt and oregano together and spread on the dough.
5. Cover dough with mozzarella cheese and then top with the goat cheese, peppers, caramelized onions and olives.
6. Bake for 12 minutes (pizza should slide right off, if not bake another minute) and then slide pizza directly onto the oven rack and bake for another 5 minutes.
7. Remove from oven when golden brown.
