1/4lbsliced prosciutto
2cupsarugula
4tbspolive oilseparated
1tspgarlic powder
salt + pepper
1/2cupricotta
1clovegarlicminced
1/2cupshredded mozzarella
1/4cupbalsamic vinegar
Instructions
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!
