Ingredients
- 1 pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
- 1/2 cup sundried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 cups fresh arugula
- 1/2 cup pine nuts
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Мethod of preparation
Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out your pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Place it on a pizza stone or a greased baking sheet. Bake for about 5 minutes, or until it's slightly firm.
While the dough pre-bakes, prepare the arugula pesto. In a food processor, combine the arugula, pine nuts, Parmesan, garlic, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
Spread the arugula pesto evenly over the pre-baked pizza crust. Sprinkle the chopped sundried tomatoes over the pesto, then top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the crust is crisp.
Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot, and enjoy the vibrant flavors of your Sundried Tomato and Arugula Pesto Pizza.
