WHITE PIZZA WITH BROCCOLI



White Pizza with Broccoli image

This delicious vegetarian pizza features steamed broccoli, creamy ricotta, mozzarella, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, and garlic.

Provided by Lizzie Streit, MS, RDN

Categories     Main Course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2.5 cups broccoli florets (cut into bite-size pieces)
2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (more to taste)
Salt (to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
12 ounces pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tsp lemon zest (more to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the pizza stone on the center rack of the oven while the oven preheats. If you don't have a pizza stone, you can still preheat the pan or baking sheet you are using to cook the pizza.
  • Meanwhile, steam the broccoli by placing the florets in a large skillet. Cover them with water, bring to a boil, cover, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender. (Be careful not to make the broccoli mushy.) You can also steam the broccoli in a vegetable steamer basket if you have one or use roasted broccoli instead. Drain the broccoli, transfer to a mixing bowl, and toss in about 1 tbsp olive oil and the red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Prepare the pizza dough by pulling/rolling it into a ~12-inch flat circle on a floured surface. Set aside. In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • When you are ready to make the pizza, remove the pizza stone from the oven. Spray with nonstick cooking spray if needed (some pizza stones are inherently nonstick). Carefully slide the pizza dough onto the stone. You should hear it sizzle slightly; this is a good sign and means that you will have crispy crust! Brush the dough with a little bit of olive oil, then sprinkle with about half of the mozzarella cheese (~3/4 cup).
  • Place the steamed broccoli florets on top of the pizza, followed by dollops of the ricotta cheese and garlic mixture. Sprinkle the rest of the mozzarella cheese and lemon zest on the pizza. I like to finish the process by adding some more freshly ground black pepper and a drizzle of olive oil on top.
  • Place the pizza stone on the center rack of the oven, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese bubbles and the crust is slightly browned. Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, and cut into slices. Enjoy!

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh minced rosemary leaves
2 ounces diced pancetta
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups Tomato Sauce
2 cups diced roasted chicken
2 cups broccoli cut into small, bite-sized pieces
1 1/2 cups diced mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds pizza dough
1/3 cup olive oil
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Special equipment: 6 (10-ounce) ramekins
  • For the Tomato Sauce: Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, rosemary, and pancetta. Saute until the pancetta is crisp and golden, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, stir to combine, and simmer over very low heat for 15 minutes. Add the salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl combine the Tomato Sauce, chicken, broccoli, mozzarella, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Divide the chicken mixture evenly between the ramekins. Roll out the pizza dough and cut circles with a pairing knife that are 1-inch wider in diameter than the ramekins. Place the circles of dough over the filled ramekins and press down to seal, making sure to pull the dough over the edge of the ramekin. Brush the top of the pizza dough with olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cut a small slit in the top of the pizza dough with a pairing knife. Bake until the pizza crust is golden, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

FOUR CHEESE WHITE BROCCOLI PIZZA (EASY)



Four Cheese White Broccoli Pizza (Easy) image

A fabulous white pizza... again, four cheeses are used (grated parmesan, provolone, ricotta, & mozzarella) as well as fresh broccoli florets. You could substitute with spinach if you like, but we LOVE this recipe as is... I buy the pre-made pizza dough from my grocery store to save time, but you could always make your own of course. Also, I use MILD provolone - it's pre-packaged & pre-sliced think it is Belgioioso brand. Note: I use the 12 oz. bag of "Broccoli Wokly" which is already cut into florets - I steam it according to the package directions first in the bag & use the full bag on the pizza.

Time 22m

Yield 1 pizza, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lb pizza dough
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
3/4 lb provolone cheese, sliced (mild)

1/3 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
garlic powder
salt
oregano

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Roll out dough. Coat pizza pan with the olive oil and spread out rolled dough evenly to all edges of pan. Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese. Top with sliced provolone then place broccoli florets (already steamed per broccoli wokly package directions) on top of provolone. Using two teaspoons, spoon about 3/4 teaspoonful size spoonfuls of ricotta sporadically around the broccoli areas in empty spots. Season whole pizza with salt, oregano & garlic powder to taste then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly all over pizza.
  • Bake for 12-18 minutes or until crust just golden brown. Slice & serve.

BROCCOLI, LEMON, AND GOUDA PIZZAS



Broccoli, Lemon, and Gouda Pizzas image

Here, the classic white pie goes green in the most delicious way: charred broccoli florets and paper-thin slices of lemon meld with sharp gouda and nutty Parmesan cheeses to make this gourmet-level pizza at home. The pizza dough will need 1 to 2 hours to rise, so plan accordingly. Alternatively, you can make the dough the day before and let it rise overnight in the fridge.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegetarian Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield Serves 2 to 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 teaspoon active dry yeast (not rapid rise), from a 1/4-ounce envelope
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup unbleached bread flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups small broccoli florets (from 1 small head)
12 paper-thin lemon slices (from 2 lemons)
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 ounces Gouda cheese, grated (1/2 cup)
2 teaspoons tender fresh rosemary leaves
1 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Whisk yeast into 3/4 cup warm water (110°) in a medium bowl; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add both flours and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; stir until a dough forms, then turn out onto a clean work surface. Knead, dusting with flour as needed, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
  • Return to bowl and cover with plastic wrap; let stand 30 minutes. Transfer to refrigerator and let rise overnight until dough doubles in size (or let dough proof at room temperature, 1 to 2 hours).
  • Preheat oven to 500°, with a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet placed on a rack in the lower middle. Lightly dust work surface with flour; turn dough out. Divide in two and form each piece into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand 30 minutes to warm slightly and relax gluten. Meanwhile, toss broccoli with lemon slices and oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Starting in center of one ball of dough, use both hands to stretch outward, rotating occasionally. Gradually work toward edges, leaving a 1-inch border of undisturbed dough for the crust, until stretched to an approximately 9-inch round. Line either a pizza peel, a thin wooden cutting board, or another upside-down baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper.
  • Transfer dough round to parchment-lined surface. Season dough with salt and pepper; drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with half of broccoli mixture. Top with half of Gouda and half of rosemary. With one quick forward-and-back jerking motion, slide pizza (with parchment) from peel onto stone in oven.
  • Bake until crust is puffed and golden brown in places and set on bottom, and broccoli is cooked and charred in places, 13 to 15 minutes. Transfer pizza (with parchment) to a wire rack; let cool 5 minutes. Sprinkle with half of Parmigiano. Repeat with second dough ball and remaining ingredients.

LUCCIARIELLO (BROCCOLI AND SAUSAGE PIE)



Lucciariello (Broccoli and Sausage Pie) image

Provided by Moira Hodgson

Categories     dinner, pizza and calzones, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 recipe pizza dough (see above)
12 ounces broccoli
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 Italian butcher sausages or coarse-cut pork sausages
2 large ripe tomatoes
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Divide the dough into two parts, one slightly larger than the other. Roll out the larger piece into a 12-inch circle and let it rise on a flat oiled pizza tin. Roll out the second piece into a slightly smaller circle and leave it on a floured work surface.
  • Trim the broccoli, cook in salted boiling water until almost tender, drain and chop into pieces the size of small walnuts. In a saute or frying pan, heat two tablespoons of the olive oil and warm the garlic, sliced, and the red pepper flakes. Do not let these burn. Add the broccoli and turn it until it has absorbed the flavors.
  • In another pan, heat another tablespoon of oil and gently brown the sausages, skinned and crumbled into small pieces. Mix the broccoli and cooked sausage, taste to check the seasoning and let the mixture cool.
  • Spread the filling over the larger circle of dough, leaving a border around the edge. Peel and thinly slice the tomatoes and arrange them over the filling, then salt and pepper to taste. Take the smaller circle of dough and place it on top of the filling. Bring the edges of the bottom circle up and over the top circle, pinching them together to tightly seal. Paint on the remaining olive oil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the crust is golden and crisp.

Tips for Making the Broccoli Pizza Pie:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: Fresh broccoli, mozzarella cheese, and a flavorful pizza sauce will make a big difference in the taste of your pie.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be tender but still slightly crisp. Overcooking will make it mushy.
  • Use a good quality pizza dough: You can make your own dough or use a store-bought dough. If using store-bought dough, let it come to room temperature before using.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: Use plenty of mozzarella cheese to ensure a gooey, flavorful pie.
  • Bake the pizza pie at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust and melted cheese.
  • Let the pizza pie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving: This will help to prevent the cheese from running out.

Conclusion:

Broccoli pizza pie is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It's packed with nutritious broccoli and cheese, and the crispy crust and flavorful sauce make it a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty dinner, give this broccoli pizza pie a try.
