Ingredients
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 pound pizza dough, at room temperature
8 ounces ricotta cheese (about 1 cup)
2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup grated pecorino romano cheese
Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
8 scallions, green parts sliced, white parts cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as mint, parsley, dill and/or basil)
2 bunches broccolini, halved lengthwise and roughly chopped
Directions
- Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Place a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet on the lower rack and preheat to 500 ̊ F. Cover another upside-down baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Put the pizza dough on the oiled paper and turn to coat. Cover with another piece of parchment and set aside.
- Mix the cheeses, red pepper flakes (if using) and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Combine the scallion greens and herbs in another bowl. Toss the broccolini and scallion whites on a baking sheet with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Roast on the upper oven rack, 15 minutes.
- Uncover the dough; stretch into a 12-by-16-inch rectangle. Season with salt and pepper, then slide the dough (on the parchment) onto the hot stone or baking sheet. Bake until golden, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Remove the parchment and crust from the oven. Top with the cheese mixture, then the roasted vegetables and herb mixture. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese melts, about 3 more minutes. Drizzle with olive oil.
