CARAMELIZED ONION PIZZETTES WITH SMOKED MOZZARELLA AND ARUGULA

Category: Pizza

1 ball pizza dough (if buying fresh, ask for enough for a large pie)
1 cup caramelized onions
1/2 lb smoked mozzarella, shredded or substituted regular mozzarella, fontina, gouda, ricotta
2 cups loosely packed arugula leaves
Olive oil

Preheat the oven to 450.

Roll the pizza dough out on a floured surface (if you don’t own a rolling pin, cover an empty wine bottle in plastic wrap). Cut the dough into small rounds with a cookie cutter, or by using the bottom of a water glass and a paring knife.

Oil a cookie sheet and arrange the rounds on it. Brush with olive oil, top with a spoonful of onions and a sprinkle of mozzarella. Bake in the oven for 7-10 minutes, until the crust is browned and crispy, and the cheese is fully melted. Top with a handful of arugula, and serve immediately.
