Ingredients

1 16-ounce package refrigerated pizza dough
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
2 large beefsteak tomatoes, sliced
4 cups arugula or other mixed greens

Directions

  1. Heat grill to medium-low.
  2. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll each to a 1/4-inch thickness.
  3. Brush each top with 1/2 tablespoon of the oil. Transfer the dough to the grill, oiled-side down.
  4. Cover grill and cook until the tops begin to bubble and the bottoms become crisp, about 3 minutes.
  5. Working quickly, brush the top of each piece of dough with 1/2 tablespoon of the oil and turn over. Divide the prosciutto evenly among them and continue to cook, uncovered, until the bottoms are golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and layer with the tomato. Top with the arugula and drizzle with the remaining oil. Cut into pieces and divide among individual plates.

Serves 4.
