Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes one 12-inch pizza

Ingredients

1 1-pound frozen white bread dough piece, thawed
3/4 cup packed chopped fresh dill
Olive oil
7 ounces soft mild goat cheese (such as Montrachet), crumbled
1/2 cup chopped red onion
4 ounces smoked salmon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup brine-cured olives (such as Kalamata), pitted, halved

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled, about 1 hour.

    Step 2

    Preheat oven to 450°F. Butter 12-inch-diameter pizza pan. Knead dough briefly on floured surface. Sprinkle 1/4 cup dill over and knead dough until dill is well incorporated. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to prepared pan. Build up edges of dough to form rim. Brush dough lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle 1/4 cup dill over, then goat cheese. Top with onion. Bake until cheese melts and crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle smoked salmon, olives and remaining 1/4 cup dill over.
