Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 oz prosciutto
  • 2 cups arugula
  • ½ cup black olives
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 475°F with a pizza stone or baking sheet inside. Roll out the 1 lb pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  2. 2

    Transfer dough to a floured peel or parchment. Spread 1/2 cup tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust.

  3. 3

    Sprinkle 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella over the sauce. Add 1/2 cup black olives, distributing them evenly.

  4. 4

    Slide the pizza onto the hot stone or sheet. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and browned in spots, about 10-12 minutes.

  5. 5

    Remove from oven and immediately top with 3 oz prosciutto and 2 cups arugula. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, slice, and serve.
