By Joelene

Ingredients

• Cornmeal, for the baking sheet
• Flour, for shaping
• 1 pound(s) pizza dough, thawed, if frozen
• 3/4 cup(s) part-skim ricotta cheese
• 2 clove(s) garlic, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup(s) grated Parmesan
• Kosher salt and pepper
• 1/2 cup(s) chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 1/2 cup(s) chopped fresh basil leaves
• 3 ounce(s) part-skim mozzarella, grated
• 3/4 cup(s) marinara sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Dust a baking sheet with cornmeal. On a lightly floured surface, shape the dough into a 14- to 16-inch oval, circle, or rectangle and place on the prepared baking sheet.
In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta, garlic, Parmesan, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Fold in the parsley, basil, and 1/4 cup mozzarella. Spread the sauce over the dough and dollop the ricotta mixture over the top.
Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and bake until the crust is golden brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes.
