Grilled Pizza With Prosciutto Ricotta And Arugula Recipes

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO AND GARLIC RICOTTA PIZZA WITH ARUGULA

Steps:

• Roll out 1/2 your dough to 1/4-inch thick on a well-floured surface. Repeat with the other half of dough and set aside.
• Heat grill to medium-high (450ºF-500ºF).
• Prep your toppings: Toss 2 cups arugula in 1 tbsp olive oil. Stir garlic powder into 3 tbsp olive oil . Stir the minced garlic clove into the ricotta with 1/2 tsp pepper and 1/4 tsp salt.
• Pour the balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat until simmering. Stir well, let cook 3 minutes, then turn off the heat. This will thicken into a glaze.
• Brush one side with olive oil and place that side down on the flame-side of hot grill grates. Grill for about 5 minutes (the bottom will be crisped and fully cooked). Brush the top with oil and carefully flip!
• Once flipped, quickly build the toppings on your pizza. Spread the 1/2 the garlic oil on the bottom, then dollop 1/2 the ricotta around the dough. Add 1/2 the prosciutto and shredded mozzarella and close the grill lid.
• Let the bottom cook for 4 minutes while the cheese melts on top. Add the tossed arugula. Shut grill lid for 1 more minute until the bottom is cooked through, then remove from the grill.
• Repeat with the other half of dough. Drizzle with balsamic glaze, slice and serve!

ARUGULA AND PROSCIUTTO PIZZA WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, RICOTTA, AND BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500°F. Place a 12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven to preheat for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in another large cast-iron skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat until it bubbles. Add the onions and sauté, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Stretch the pizza dough out into a 12-inch round. In the preheated cast-iron skillet, drizzle some oil, then add the dough round.
• Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil. Spread the ricotta on top and season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden, 10 to 15 minutes.
• When the pizza comes out, mix the melted butter, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Brush it along the crust of the pizza. Tear the prosciutto into small pieces or strips and place on top. Top with the arugula and caramelized onions. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze, then top with shaved Parmesan cheese.
• Transfer to a cutting board and cut into 8 slices to serve.
• In a small bowl, stir together the yeast, sugar, and warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add the flour to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Sprinkle the salt over the flour and mix on low speed for 15 seconds to distribute the salt.
• Add the olive oil, room-temperature water, and yeast mixture and mix on low speed for 1 to 2 minutes, then increase the speed to medium and mix until a ball of dough forms, about 5 minutes.
• Spray a medium bowl lightly with cooking spray. Shape the dough into a ball and set it in the bowl seam side down. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in a warm area until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• When the dough is almost risen, place a cast-iron pizza stone on the center rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 500°F.
• When the dough has risen, remove the plastic wrap and push down on the dough to release the gases and bubbles. Shape it into a ball. (If using the dough later, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours. The dough will slowly proof during that time. Once you're ready to use it, set it out for 30 minutes to come to room temperature.)
• Spread a piece of parchment paper about 1 1/2-feet long on a work surface. Stretch the dough into a 14-inch round on the parchment.
• Top with your favorite toppings. Carefully pull the oven rack with the pizza stone halfway out of the oven and transfer the parchment and pizza dough to the stone.
• Bake until the crust is golden, 13 to 15 minutes. Transfer the pizza to a cutting board and cut into 8 slices to serve.

GRILLED FLATBREAD WITH CRISPY PROSCIUTTO, RICOTTA AND VINCOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the prosciutto and cook, turning, until crispy and brick red in color, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the prosciutto to a paper towel-lined plate and remove the pan from the heat. Brush the flatbread with the prosciutto oil on both sides.
• Add the flatbread to the grill and cook until golden brown and toasted, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the flatbread from the grill and let cool 1 minute.
• Using a spatula, spread the ricotta all over the flatbread, leaving a small border along the edge. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Microwave the honey for 5 to 10 seconds just to loosen. Using a spoon, drizzle the honey over the ricotta and top with the crispy prosciutto. Drizzle with some vincotto and top with chives. Cut into pieces.

GRILLED PIZZA WITH PROSCIUTTO, ARUGULA AND GORGONZOLA

Steps:

• Pizza Dough:.
• Pour warm water into a small bowl and stir in the yeast and sugar until dissolved. Let it stand for about 5 minutes to make sure that the yeast is activated. A thin layer of foam should appear on the top, indicating good active yeast.
• Mix the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the yeast water and 2 Tbsp of olive oil. Mix well with your hands or a mixing spoon. Lightly flour a clean working surface. Form the dough into a ball; turn it out onto the working surface. Flour lightly the top of the dough and press down with the palm of your hand. Fold the dough over itself and press again. Continue to roll and press the dough for about 12 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic, adding flour only when necessary to keep from sticking.
• Place the dough back into the mixing bowl. Rub the remaining olive oil all over the dough to keep moist while it is rising. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place (about 75 degrees) for 2 hours or until it rises double in size.
• Once risen, you can use the dough to make pizzas, and or the remaining dough can be refrigerated for up 2 days. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface working it into a circular crust about 10 inches in diameter.
• Assembly:.
• INDOOR: Wipe the bottom of a grilling pan or heavy bottom skillet with a paper towel moistened with olive oil. Preheat the pan over high heat for 5 minutes. Place the dough in the skillet. The crust should bubble on top within 1 minute; if not, turn the heat up.
• OUTDOOR: If your using an outdoor grill, simply heat the grill to medium heat and place the dough on the grill, it should bubble and the crust should form.
• Place the grilled pizza a working surface, grilled side up. Brush the grilled side of the pizza with olive oil. Top the pizza with the fresh mozzarella, then the arugula. Place the slice of prosciutto on the pizza in loose bunches, creating an alternating pattern. Finally top with the crumbled Gorgonzola, and return to the grill to grill the bottom of the pizza and until cheese is bubbling and the edges are golden brown. Serve hot.
