Ingredients
- 2 Tbs. olive oil
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 4 cups (4 oz./125 g) packed baby spinach
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 1 Meyer lemon, very thinly sliced
- 1 batch thin-crust pizza dough (see related recipe at left)
- 2/3 cup (3.5 oz./105 g) crumbled goat cheese
- Crumbled dried whole chili peppers as needed
Instructions
- Preheat a Breville pizza maker on the preheat setting for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large nonstick fry pan over medium heat, warm 2 tsp. of the olive oil. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the spinach, season with salt and pepper and cook until the spinach is just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 Tbs. of the olive oil and the garlic. In another bowl, toss the lemon slices with the remaining 1 tsp. olive oil.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough into a 10-inch (25-cm) round. Prick the dough all over with the tines of a fork. Transfer the dough to a floured pizza peel. Lightly brush the dough with half of the garlic oil. Top with half <i>each </i>of the spinach mixture, lemon slices, cheese and chili peppers.
- Transfer the pizza to the pizza maker. Bake on the classic setting according to the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions until the crust is crisp and the cheese is lightly browned, 10 to 11 minutes.
- Using the pizza peel, transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Preheat the pizza maker again, assemble the remaining pizza and bake. Cut the pizzas into slices and serve immediately. Makes two 10-inch (25-cm) pizzas.
