Description
Artichoke Pizza with Prosciutto Cotto: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 4 ounces prosciutto cotto, sliced thin
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- ½ cup ricotta cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
- Prepare the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer it onto a baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
- Brush with Olive Oil: Drizzle olive oil over the rolled-out dough, spreading it evenly with a brush or your fingers.
- Add Seasonings: Sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper over the dough for flavor.
- Spread the Ricotta: Using a spoon, dollop ricotta cheese evenly across the pizza base.
- Layer the Mozzarella: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the ricotta.
- Add Artichokes: Distribute the chopped artichoke hearts evenly over the cheese layer.
- Top with Prosciutto Cotto: Arrange the slices of prosciutto cotto on top of the artichokes, ensuring even coverage.
- Bake the Pizza: Carefully transfer your pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese bubbles.
- Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, top with fresh basil leaves for added flavor and presentation.
