Cooking Steps

Prep dough
1

Before starting, remove pizza dough from the fridge and rest in a warm spot for 20 min. Preheat the oven to 475°F. Wash and dry all produce. Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with 1 tbsp oil. • Place dough in the baking dish. Using your fingers, stretch and push dough towards the sides to completely cover the bottom of the dish. • Set aside and let dough rest, 2-3 min.

Finish prep
2

Peel, then mince or grate garlic. • Combine pesto and half the garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. • Meanwhile, halve tomatoes. Toss tomatoes and remaining garlic together in another small bowl. • Roughly tear bocconcini, then season with salt and pepper.

Assemble and bake
3

Using your fingers, stretch and push dough again towards the sides of the dish. (NOTE: The dough should now hold its shape.) • Brush pesto over top of dough, then top with tomatoes and bocconcini. Sprinkle Parmesan over top. • Bake focaccia in the middle of the oven until golden-brown and cooked through, 14-16 min.

Finish and serve
4

Allow focaccia to cool for 8-10 min. (TIP: This will help the cheese stay in place when cut!) • Combine arugula and 1/2 tbsp balsamic glaze in a small bowl. • Remove focaccia from the dish, then top with dressed arugula. • Slice and serve. Drizzle with remaining balsamic glaze if desired
