Best 3 Goat Cheese Pizzas With Indian Spiced Tomatoes And Mustard Greens Recipes

WHITE PIZZA WITH INDIAN SPICED GREENS

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.

RADISH & GOAT CHEESE PIZZA WITH SPICY MIXED GREENS AND OPTIONAL CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, and salt and pepper. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if you wish.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Pull/press/roll pizza dough into an approximately 14-inch circle. Sprinkle a little flour on your baking surface (stone or baking sheet) and carefully transfer the dough.
• Spoon the ricotta onto the dough and gently spread with a spoon, leaving 1/2-inch border around the edge of the pizza. Sprinkle the ricotta with the crushed red pepper flakes, a generous pinch of coarse salt, and the freshly ground pepper. Crumble the goat cheese and evenly sprinkle it over the top.
• If adding chicken, spread it onto half or all.
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
• Meanwhile, add the mixed greens and radishes to a large bowl. Pour the vinaigrette over the top and toss.
• Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately top with the greens and radishes.
• Slice and serve. Pass grated Parmesan for topping, if desired.

SPICY SPINACH AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add spinach; toss until beginning to wilt, about 2 minutes. Add rosemary and crushed pepper and toss 1 minute. Remove from heat; mix in lemon juice and peel.
• Arrange crusts on work surface. Spread 1/4 of goat cheese on each. Top each with half of spinach mixture, then drop remaining goat cheese over spinach by teaspoonfuls.
• Place pizzas directly onto oven rack. Bake until crusts are crisp and cheese on top begins to brown, about 10 minutes.
