This fresh take on white pizza has a base of pesto and white cheeses topped with a veritable salad of all our favorite green vegetables. Peas and crispy, thin-shaved asparagus, zucchini, and leeks are topped with watercress, basil, and pecorino curls for a satisfying slice that just happens to be vegetarian.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup whole-milk ricotta
16 ounces prepared pizza dough, room temperature
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil, divided, plus more for pan
1 medium zucchini (about 8 ounces), trimmed, thinly shaved with a vegetable peeler
2 small leeks, whites and pale-green parts cut into half moons, very thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
4 ounces asparagus, trimmed, thinly shaved with a vegetable peeler
1/2 cup frozen sweet peas, thawed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella
1/4 cup homemade or store-bought pesto
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/2 cup watercress
1/4 cup torn basil
1.5 ounces Pecorino, shaved into curls with a vegetable peeler (about 1/2 cup)
1/3 cup unsalted, roasted pistachios, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Place a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 500°F. Drain ricotta in a paper towel-lined colander.
  • Gently stretch dough to a 16x12" oval and transfer to a lightly oiled rimmed baking sheet. (If dough springs back, cover with plastic wrap and let rest 10 minutes, then stretch again, resting as needed.) Brush with 1 Tbsp. oil, then bake until dry and golden, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss zucchini, leeks, asparagus, peas, salt, and 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl. Whisk ricotta, mozzarella, pesto, garlic, and lemon zest in another medium bowl until smooth.
  • Spread ricotta mixture over dough, then arrange vegetables over. Bake pizza, rotating pan halfway through, until cheese is melted, vegetables are roasted and tender, and crust is golden brown, 7-9 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss watercress and basil with remaining 1 tsp. oil. Remove baking sheet from oven, then transfer pizza with a pizza peel or offset spatula to wire rack. Top pizza with watercress mixture, Pecorino, and pistachios. Let cool slightly, then cut into wedges and serve.

GREEN AND WHITE PIZZA



Green and White Pizza image

Topping a freshly cooked pizza with a freshly dressed salad of baby greens is a marvelous weeknight meal even if you order the pizza from down the street. But making your own, as The Times learned from the pizza mavens at Roberta's in Brooklyn, from whom we acquired this recipe, delivers even greater pleasures. Any young greens may be substituted for the arugula.

Categories     dinner, lunch, pizza and calzones, appetizer, main course

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 12-inch round of pizza dough, stretched
2 3/4 ounces fresh mozzarella
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1/2 ounce Parmesan, finely grated
2 handfuls baby arugula
Half a lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Place a pizza stone or tiles on the middle rack of your oven and turn heat to its highest setting. Let it heat for at least an hour.
  • Break the mozzarella into small pieces and place them gently on the stretched dough. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and a pinch of salt and scatter the Parmesan over the top.
  • Using a pizza peel, pick up the pie and slide it onto the heated stone or tiles in the oven. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling, approximately 4 to 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the arugula in a large bowl and dress it lightly with a splash of the olive oil, the lemon juice and a further pinch of salt, or to taste.
  • When the pizza is done, put the dressed greens on top of the pie and serve immediately.

WHITE PIZZA WITH INDIAN SPICED GREENS



White Pizza with Indian Spiced Greens image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 2 pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 to 2 tablespoons canola oil
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 large bunch greens, coarsely chopped (Swiss chard, spinach, or any combination - I used Swiss chard and removed the stems)
1 bunch fresh mustard greens, coarsely chopped
1 to 2 teaspoons hot curry powder (can use more, depends on how spicy you like it)
Homemade pizza dough or 1 (16-ounce) store-bought dough
Olive oil, for grill
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, shredded
3/4 cup shredded fontina cheese
1/2 cup goat cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup crumbled paneer

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat the pan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Saute the garlic for 1 minute.
  • Add in the greens and saute until wilted. Add in the curry powder and continue to cook the greens until they start to get soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Cut the dough into 2 (8-ounce) pieces. Stretch the dough out on a lightly floured surface with your hands. When the grill is at a consistent 400 to 450 degrees F (no hotter than 450), lightly brush the grill with olive oil. Place dough directly onto the grill surface. Close the grill cover and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. About 2 minutes in, open the grill and pop the air bubbles with a fork. The bottom should be brown with some charred spots but not burned or underdone. Close lid and continue cooking. Remove from grill and place on a work surface with the cooked/grilled side up.
  • Lower the heat on the grill to medium-low heat so that the cheese has time to melt and the bottom does not burn.
  • Spread equal amounts of the mozzarella and fontina on each pizza. Divide the cooked greens on top of the cheese. Place a few dollops of crumbled goat cheese over the top of the greens, then sprinkle with the crumbled paneer.
  • Lightly oil grill once more and carefully place pizzas, cheese side up, onto the grill.
  • Close the lid and let it cook slowly for another 5 to 10 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and so that the bottom does not burn. When the cheese is completely melted and the bottom is a nice even brown with some charred spots, remove from the grill to a cutting board, slice and serve.
