Pizza with Tomatoes, Mozzarella and Basi




Source of Recipe


Marla
Pizza with Tomatoes, Mozzarella and Basil

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for
drizzling
1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, drained and chopped
Salt
1 pound room-temperature pizza dough
10 ounces buffalo mozzarella, thinly sliced
16 basil leaves, torn

Put a pizza stone on the oven floor and preheat the
oven to 500 degrees F, allowing at least 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the 1 tablespoon
of olive oil. Add the tomatoes and cook over high
heat, stirring a few times, until slightly thickened,
about 4 minutes. Season with salt.
Cut the pizza dough into 4 pieces and pat each one
into a disk. Transfer the disks to a floured baking
sheet, cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 20
minutes.
On a lightly floured work surface, roll 1 disk of
dough into a 9-inch round. Transfer it to a floured
pizza peel or flat cookie sheet. Spoon about 1/4 cup
of the tomatoes over the dough. Top with one-fourth of
the mozzarella and drizzle with olive oil. Slide the
pizza onto the hot stone and bake for about 4 minutes,
or until browned around the edges and bubbling.
Transfer the pizza to a work surface and sprinkle with
4 basil leaves. Cut it into 4 wedges and serve
immediately. Repeat with the remaining pizza dough,
tomatoes, cheese, olive oil and basil.

Yield: 4 servings
