1

Temper the dough, preheat the oven, and prepare the cheeses

Place the covered pizza dough at room temperature for 20 minutes to make it easier to stretch. Meanwhile, position an oven rack in the lower third and preheat the oven to 475°F. Keep the prosciutto refrigerated. Drain the mozzarella, pat it very dry with paper towels, and tear it into 1-inch pieces. Shave the Parmesan with a vegetable peeler.

Keep the prosciutto refrigerated at 40°F or below until the pizza is baked and ready for its finishing toppings.

2

Prepare the baking sheet and stretch the dough

Coat the baking sheet with 2 teaspoons olive oil, then sprinkle it evenly with the cornmeal. Place the dough in the center and press outward with lightly oiled fingertips, gently stretching it into a 12-by-16-inch rectangle. Leave a slightly thicker rim around the edge. If the dough springs back, cover it and let it relax for 5 minutes before finishing the shape.

3

Add the sauce and mozzarella and oil the border

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 3/4-inch border. Distribute the mozzarella over the sauce. Brush the exposed dough border with 2 teaspoons olive oil.

4

Bake until crisp, browned, and bubbling

Bake for 14 to 16 minutes, rotating the baking sheet after 8 minutes. The pizza is ready when the crust is puffed and deep golden brown, the underside is crisp and browned, and the mozzarella is melted with bubbling, lightly browned spots.

Use dry oven mitts when rotating or removing the 475°F baking sheet.

5

Dress the arugula

While the pizza finishes baking, toss the arugula with the lemon juice, black pepper, and remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil.

Top the hot pizza with prosciutto, arugula, and Parmesan

Remove the prosciutto from the refrigerator only when the pizza comes out of the oven. Immediately drape the prosciutto over the hot pizza, then scatter the dressed arugula and shaved Parmesan on top.

Use clean hands or utensils when handling the ready-to-eat prosciutto.

Use dry oven mitts and place the hot baking sheet on a heat-safe surface.

Rest, cut, and serve the pizza
