Arugula pizza with ricotta and poached eggs
1 bag refrigerated pizza dough (if TJ's is used, be sure to divide it in two and allow to sit at room temp 30 minute before using)
16 oz container part-skim ricotta cheese
1/2 cup shaved fresh Romano cheese, divided
1 TBS white wine vinegar
6 large eggs
2 cups or so arugula
4 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp grated fresh lemon rind
1/2 TBS fresh lemon juice
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1. Preheat oven to 425
2. Work pizza dough into a thin flat circle by rolling out on a floured work surface
3. Place dough on pizza pan and place in oven and bake about 7 minutes until lightly golden.
4. Combine ricotta and 1/4 cup cheese.
5. Remove pizza crust from oven and spread ricotta mixture evenly over crusts leaving 1/2 inch border around the edges. Return to oven and bake 5 more minutes or until crust looks nice and done.
6. While pizza bakes, add water to a large skillet, filling 2/3 full. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer. Add vinegar. Break each egg into a custard cup, and pour gently into pan. Cook 3 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Carefully remove eggs from pan using a slotted spoon. Set aside.
7. Combine arugula, remaining 1/4 cup Romano cheese, and the next 4 ingredients (through salt) in a large bowl. Toss well. Top pizza with arugula mixture and eggs. Sprinkle with pepper. Cut into 6 slices.
