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.
- 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
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.)
