Pesto, Prosciutto and Goat Cheese Pizza
A pesto base topped with prosciutto and goat cheese quickly turns this pizza into a vibrant and tasty work of art. The fresh herb pesto, tangy goat cheese and delicate prosciutto come together to create a light pizza that pairs nicely with a well-stocked charcuterie board.
Ingredients
- 1 thin-crust pizza dough a regular-crust works too
- 1 T. olive oil
- ¾ c. pesto plus extra for topping
- ¾ c. prosciutto rolled and thinly sliced
- ½ c. goat cheese crumbled
- ¾ c. mozzarella shredded
Instructions
- Brush a thin-crust pizza dough with olive oil. Then spread a thin layer of pesto across the dough.
- Top the pesto with rolled and thinly sliced prosciutto, followed by crumbled goat cheese, shredded mozzarella and extra dollops of pesto.
- Bake at 400° on a non-stick baking pan (425° for all other pans) in your kitchen oven for 20-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted. (If using an outdoor pizza oven, cook-time will likely be shorter.)
