Ingredients:
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup caramelized onions
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 pound prime rib, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1/4 cup balsamic glaze
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh arugula (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and, if using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Season the Dough: Brush the dough with olive oil, then sprinkle with minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Add the Toppings: Evenly spread the caramelized onions over the dough. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the onions, followed by the crumbled blue cheese.
- Layer the Prime Rib: Arrange the thin slices of prime rib on top of the cheese. Sprinkle the chopped rosemary over the entire pizza.
- Bake: Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and drizzle with balsamic glaze. If desired, top with a handful of fresh arugula for a peppery bite. Slice and serve immediately.
