Artichoke Mortadella Flatbread Pizzas Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil.
• In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the balsamic vinegar starts to thicken and has reduced by half, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, lay out the flatbreads on the prepared baking sheets and coat with cooking spray. Bake for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the oven but leave the oven on.
• Spread 2 tablespoons Alfredo sauce evenly onto each flatbread. Top each with 1 cup spinach, 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, 1/4 cup artichokes, and 2 tablespoons mozzarella.
• Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle the balsamic reduction evenly over each pizza.

Steps:

• Thinly slice 1 garlic clove, and set aside. Gently crush remaining clove, and rub over one side of each of the bread slices. Brush both sides of bread with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toast slices on a grill or in a skillet over medium-high heat until golden and crisp on both sides. Transfer to a serving platter, and set aside.
• Heat remaining tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add reserved garlic and artichoke hearts. Saute until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
• Season ricotta cheese with salt and pepper; spread about 2 tablespoons of mixture on each slice of bread. Top with sauteed garlic and artichokes. Season again with salt and pepper. Garnish with shaved Parmesan cheese, and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Place breads on 2 baking sheets. Brush breads with some of artichoke marinade. Bake until just beginning to color, about 3 minutes. Cool on sheets 5 minutes.
• Spread breads almost to edges with feta spread or sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. Top with tomatoes, olives, oregano and artichokes. Drizzle with remaining artichoke marinade.
• Bake pizzas until heated through, about 4 minutes. Cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler, with a rack 6 inches from heating element. In a bowl, stir together ricotta, Parmigiano, and oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Divide evenly among bread slices, spreading almost to edges but leaving a 1/4-inch border.
• Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Broil until cheese mixture is bubbly and browned in places, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 1 minute.
• Top cheese toasts evenly with mortadella, artichoke hearts, arugula, and shaved Parmigiano. Lightly drizzle with oil, season with pepper, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• If using fresh artichokes, steam until tender or boil gently in a pot of generously salted water, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, refresh with cold water and quarter the artichokes. Thaw frozen artichokes as directed, and drain off any liquid in the bowl.
• Beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Whisk in the milk, about 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a 10-inch, heavy nonstick skillet, and add the artichokes. Cook, stirring often, until golden brown, about five to eight minutes. Add the garlic, and cook for another 30 seconds to a minute until fragrant. Stir in the herbs, and season with salt and pepper. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with a spatula in your other hand, so that the eggs run underneath during the few minutes of cooking.
• Turn the heat down to low, cover (use a pizza pan if you don't have a lid that will fit your skillet) and cook 10 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while. From time to time, remove the lid and loosen the bottom of the omelet with a wooden spatula, tilting the pan so that the bottom doesn't burn. Instead it should turn a deep golden brown. Meanwhile, heat the broiler.
• Finish the omelet under the broiler for one to two minutes, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn. (It should brown slightly, and it will puff under the broiler.) Remove from the heat and immediately sprinkle on the Parmesan or pecorino. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.
