Preparation

Step 1

Place crust on parchment paper–lined baking sheet or pizza pan. Sprinkle with Gruyère cheese, leaving 1/2-inch (1 cm) border uncovered. Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven until cheese is melted and crust is golden and no longer doughy, 6 to 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, in large skillet, heat butter and half of the oil over medium heat; cook shallots, thyme and garlic, stirring occasionally, until shallots are softened, 2 minutes.

Add mushrooms, salt and pepper; cook for 4 minutes. Add peas and cream cheese; cook until peas are warm and cheese is melted. Spread on baked crust.

Toss together arugula, lemon juice and remaining oil; scatter over pizza.
