Ingredients:
- 1 premade pizza dough
- 8-10 thin lemon slices
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 fresh mozzarella ball, cut into thin slices
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup Divina Pitted Frescatrano™ Olives, sliced in half
- 1/2 cup Divina Roasted Garlic Cloves
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
Directions:
- Place pizza stone on the middle rack of oven. Heat stone at 450°F for at least 30 minutes.
- Toss lemon slices with EVOO and salt
- Lightly flour a pizza peel, then stretch one dough ball into a 10" or 11" round and transfer to the peel.
- Spread half of the lemon slices over the dough, then top pizza with the mozzarella and ricotta, placing it in the gaps between lemon slices.
- Top pizza with Frescatrano™ Olives and roasted garlic cloves, then sprinkle with half of the crushed red chili flakes. Drizzle some oil over pizza and slide the pizza onto the hot stone.
- Bake until the cheese melts and crust is nicely browned, about 8 to 12 minutes depending on the thickness. Rotate pie at two-thirds of the way through to achieve even browning.
- Sprinkle fresh basil on pizza after removing from oven and before serving
