Broccoli Chard Pizza with Chévre
inpraiseofleftovers.com
You can use any dark, leafy green here--kale, collards. You could use spinach, too, but I'm really partial to the bitter stuff. If you use spinach, make sure you really squeeze the water out of it before you line the dough. And you could use ricotta instead of chévre and really so many other cheeses. This was a divine combination, though. Ingredients 1 recipe pizza dough or I buy the Trader Joes, easy and good 2 c. washed broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces squeeze of lemon 6 c. washed chard, stems removed, leaves coarsely chopped 2 cloves minced garlic olive oil salt freshly ground pepper 1 c. shredded whole milk mozarella 1/2 c. shredded parmesan 1/2 c. crumbled chévre |
Preparation
For broccoli: Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and add 1 Tb. olive oil. Throw broccoli in and stir-fry for about 3 minutes, until blackened in spots. Finish with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon. Set aside.
For chard: Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and add 1 Tb. olive oil. Add minced garlic, saute for 30 seconds, then add chard and a pinch of salt. Saute until cooked down and soft, about 10 minutes. Drain all the water from it (I usually put a lid over it and tip the pan over the sink) and set aside.
To assemble pizza: Get your dough ready by following these instructions. Spread the mozarella as a base, then top with chard and broccoli. Sprinkle chévre and parmesan over and cook at 500 for about 10 minutes, until crust is puffy and bubbly.
