This is a recipe that I came up with last week while Sabrina was visiting from Arizona.
So....
After way too many mojitos it was time to make dinner... here's what we came up with.
You will need:
- 1 puff pastry dough
- prosciutto
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- pitted black Kalamata olives
- grated mozzarella and Swiss cheese (half-half)
- fresh basil
- olive oil
- salt/pepper
1. Preheat oven to the appropriate temperature (usually pretty high...425 or so) whatever the box says.
2. Slightly roll out defrosted puff pastry dough.
3. Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper and the clove of minced garlic.
4. Prick dough a few times with a fork and bake for 7 minutes.
5. Take it out and then top with cheese, prosciutto and olives.
6. Put it back in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes more (or until cheese and pastry get golden).
7. Take out and top with huge, fresh basil leaves.
Cut and eat!
Side salad:
I served the pizza with a simple Italian-inspired salad: fresh basil, baby tomatoes, bocconcini cheese, sliced and fresh arugula. Sprinkle with olive oil and white wine vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
It was delicious!!!
