    From the Test Kitchen

    Chefs! To start the new year off with a clean slate, we’re bringing you a series of recipes designed with ease of cooking and cleanup in mind, but without sacrificing the incredible flavors you’ve come to expect from a classic Blue Apron meal. To give this crowd-pleasing pizza gourmet flair, you’ll make an savory oil for drizzling over it all using aromatic garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. It’s the perfect finish to crisp, golden brown crust layered with a classic tomato sauce, two kinds of peppers, and briny capers.

    Title
    • 1 Piece Focaccia Bread
    • 1 8-Oz Can Tomato Sauce
    • 1 clove Garlic
    • ½ oz Sweet Piquante Peppers
    • 4 oz Shredded Fontina Cheese
    • 1 Tbsp Capers
    • ¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

    Prepare the ingredients
    1 Prepare the ingredients

    Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 475°F. Halve the bread horizontally. In a bowl, combine the tomato sauce and Italian seasoning; season with salt and pepper. Wash and dry the bell pepper; cut off and discard the stem. Quarter the pepper lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Roughly chop the piquante peppers. Peel 1 clove of garlic; using a zester or the small side of a box grater, finely grate into a paste. Remove the plastic lining between the slices of prosciutto.

    Place the halved bread on a sheet pan, cut side up. Evenly top with the seasoned tomato sauce, fontina, sliced bell pepper, chopped piquante peppers, capers, and half the parmesan; season with salt and pepper. Bake the pizza 15 to 17 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges of the bread are lightly browned and crispy. Carefully transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 2 minutes.
