    Use my Weir Dough for Pizza recipe to make the dough!

    Ingredients

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    • 3ounces grated mozzarella cheese
    • 3 ounces grated Italian fontina cheese
    • 2 bunches tender young flat-leaf parsley
    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
    • Salt
    • 3 ounce chunk Parmigiano Reggiano
    • Weir Dough for Pizza

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F and place pizza brick on the bottom shelf of oven.
    2. In a small bowl, combine the garlic and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and let stand for 30 minutes. Pick the parsley leaves from stems and discard stems.
    3. For the vinaigrette, in a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
    4. Divide the dough into 2 round pieces. Do not work the dough too much. Roll and form one piece of dough into a 10 to 11-inch circle, 3/8ths-inch thick. Transfer to a heavily floured pizza peel and brush teh dough to within 1/2-inch of edge with the garlic-infused oil. Sprinkle half of the combined cheeses on top of the oil Transfer the unbaked pizza directly onto a pizza brick and bake until golden and crisp, about 10 to 12 minutes.
    5. In the meantime, toss the parsley leaves with the vinaigrette. Shave the Parmigiano Reggiano into paper-thin slices. When the pizza is golden and crisp, remove from the oven. Top with half of the parsley salad and Parmigiano Reggiano. Serve immediately. Repeat for second pizza.
