Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt.
2. Make a well in the center and pour in the warm water. Mix until the dough begins to come together.
3. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
2. Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into two equal pieces.
3. Roll out each piece on a lightly floured surface to your desired pizza shape and thickness.
4. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
5. Distribute the cherry tomatoes, sliced garlic, and olives evenly over each pizza base.
6. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Top each pizza with the grated Parmesan cheese.
1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
2. Remove from the oven and let the pizzas cool for a few minutes before slicing.
1. While the pizzas are baking, prepare the rocket salad.
2. In a large bowl, toss the arugula with a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Allow the dough to rise adequately by letting it rest in a warm place until it doubles in size.
- Use fresh garlic and arugula for the best possible flavor.
- Consider using a pizza stone to achieve a crispier crust.
- Feel free to add additional toppings like fresh basil or thinly sliced prosciutto for extra flavor.
- To prevent soggy pizza, drain excess moisture from the cherry tomatoes and olives before adding them to the pizza.
Garlic pizzas with rocket salad are not only flavorful but also quite straightforward to prepare. With a crispy crust, vibrant arugula, and a hint of garlic, this dish is sure to become a favorite. Enjoy the balance of flavors and textures that make this recipe truly special.
