Prosciutto With Pears And Arugula Recipes

ARUGULA-PROSCIUTTO PIZZA

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a cornmeal-dusted pizza peel or another upside-down baking sheet; slide the dough onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake 8 minutes. Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl with the garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Remove the pizza from the oven, brush with the olive oil mixture and top with the ricotta and mozzarella. Return the pizza to the oven; bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 6 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the arugula and shallot in a large bowl with the lemon juice, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Top the pizza with the arugula salad, prosciutto and shaved parmesan. Cut into slices.

PEACHES WITH BURRATA AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Toss 2 peaches (cut into wedges) with 2 teaspoons white balsamic vinegar and a pinch each of sugar, salt and pepper. Let stand 10 minutes. Spread 1 1/2 cups baby arugula on a platter and top with the peaches. Top with a 4-ounce ball torn burrata and 2 ounces torn prosciutto. Drizzle with olive oil; sprinkle with flaky salt, pepper, torn mint and chopped chives.

PEAR AND PROSCIUTTO PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place the garlic in a small square of aluminum foil. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil over the garlic. Wrap foil around garlic to seal.
• Roast the garlic in the preheated oven until soft, about 20 minutes. Smash roasted cloves with a fork.
• Place the pears in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil; toss to coat. Arrange pear slices on a baking sheet.
• Bake in hot oven until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Preheat a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
• Lightly dust a flat surface with flour. Roll the prepared pizza crust dough out onto the prepared surface. Dust a baking sheet with cornmeal. Lay the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread the mashed garlic onto the dough; top with the Swiss cheese. Arrange the pears, prosciutto, and mozzarella cheese onto the pizza. Season with salt and pepper. Brush the edges of the crust with the 1/2 tablespoon olive oil.
• Bake in preheated oven until the cheese is melted and crust is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

PEAR & PROSCIUTTO CREAM CHEESE CROSTINI
