Fig-Prosciutto-Arugula Pizza

This is hands down one of my favorite combinations for pizza. I call it PFA Pizza for short. I suggest you make a couple pies because when you taste it you will want to go for seconds, thirds and more…

I use fig spread instead of the traditional sauce which imparts a good deal of sweetness. The prosciutto crisps in the oven almost like bacon and the peppery taste of arugula is to die for.

The cheese we use is fresh goat cheese. It goes very well with the fig and the arugula and finally, the pièce de résistance is the Parmigiano-Reggiano crowning this magnificent pie.

Remember to use our pizza dough. It is super easy to make and  you can make it in advance. You can use your own or a store-bought dough but I assure you it is not going to be that good
