Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Cornmeal (for sprinkling)
1 1-pound package purchased pizza dough
2 cups (generous) crumbled Gorgonzola cheese (about 8 ounces)
6 small fresh figs, cut into 1/4- to 1/3-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons fig balsamic vinegar, divided
8 thin slices prosciutto (from two 3-ounce packages)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 cups arugula

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Sprinkle large rimless baking sheet generously with cornmeal. Roll out dough on floured work surface to 12x10-inch rectangle; transfer to prepared sheet. Sprinkle Gorgonzola over dough. Sprinkle with pepper. Place figs in medium bowl; drizzle 1 tablespoon vinegar over. Set aside.
  • Bake pizza until crust is golden brown on bottom, 15 to 20 minutes. Immediately drape prosciutto slices over, covering pizza completely. Arrange fig slices atop prosciutto. Bake until figs are just heated through, about 1 minute. Transfer pizza to cutting board. Whisk remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and oil in large bowl; add arugula. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Mound salad atop pizza. Cut into pieces and serve.

I'm not a big fan of figs, but I loved this pizza! The sweetness of the figs was balanced out by the salty prosciutto and the creaminess of the gorgonzola. The balsamic vinegar added a nice tangy flavor. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

This pizza was good, but not great. The crust was a little too thick for my taste and the toppings were a bit bland.
