Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
  2. On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness, ensuring it fits your baking sheet or pizza stone.
  3. Transfer the rolled dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or directly onto the preheated pizza stone.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil and minced garlic. Brush this mixture generously over the surface of the pizza dough to infuse it with flavor.
  5. Spread the thawed peas evenly across the dough, creating a colorful and fresh base.
  6. Arrange the torn pieces of prosciutto over the peas, distributing them evenly for a balanced taste.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top, ensuring each bite is cheesy and delicious.
  8. Season the pizza with salt and pepper to taste for enhanced flavor.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle the chopped mint leaves over the top for a fresh finish.
  11. Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
