Sweet Corn & Tinkerbell Pepper Pizza
with Fontina Cheese & Baby Kale
50 MIN
3 Servings
From the Test Kitchen
This gourmet pizza is the perfect way to highlight some of the season’s best and brightest vegetables. Delightfully petite tinkerbell peppers (a miniature variety of bell pepper) and sunny corn fresh off the cob create layers of robust, sweet flavor atop our two cheeses. For a verdant twist, we’re topping the baked pizza with tender baby kale tossed with a bit of red wine vinaigrette.

instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients:
Remove the dough from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 475°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Peel and mince the garlic. Remove and discard the husk and silk of the corn. Cut the corn kernels off the cob; discard the cob. Cut off and discard any rind from the Fontina cheese; small dice the cheese. Cut off and discard the stem ends of the peppers; remove and discard any seeds, keeping the peppers intact. Cut the peppers into ¼-inch-thick rings.
2
Make the sauce:
In a small pot, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Add the tomato sauce; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly combined and heated through. Stir in as much of the red pepper flakes as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3
Prepare the dough:
Lightly oil a sheet pan. On a clean, dry work surface, using your hands and a rolling pin (or a wine bottle), gently stretch and roll the dough to a ¼-inch thickness. (If the dough is resistant, let rest for 5 minutes.) Carefully transfer to the prepared sheet pan; rub the dough into the pan to coat the bottom in oil.
4
Assemble & bake the pizza:
Evenly spread the sauce onto the prepared dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges (you may have extra sauce). Evenly top the sauce with the corn, Fontina cheese and peppers. Sprinkle with half the Parmesan cheese; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake 18 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let stand for at least 2 minutes.
5
Make the dressing:
While the pizza bakes, in a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and remaining Parmesan cheese; season with salt and pepper to taste. Slowly whisk in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until well combined.
6
Dress the kale & serve your dish:
Just before serving, add the kale to the bowl of dressing. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper to taste. Top the baked pizza with the dressed kale. Divide ⅔ of the finished pizza between 2 dishes (you will have extra pizza). Enjoy!
