A step up from the standard version, using fresh clams and a more nuanced sauce. This version balances convenience with quality.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475°F (246°C).
- Steam the Fresh Littleneck Clams with 1/4 cup White Wine until they open (discard any that don't open). Remove from shells and reserve clam juice.
- Stretch or roll out the Dough to a 12-14 inch circle. Brush with 1 tbsp Olive Oil.
- In a saucepan, heat 1/4 cup Olive Oil over medium heat. Add Garlic and Red Pepper Flakes and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Deglaze the pan with White Wine, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer for 2 minutes, until the wine has reduced slightly.
- Stir in Clam Juice and Butter and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat.
- Spread the Sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Sprinkle with Pecorino Romano Cheese and evenly distribute the steamed Clams.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Sprinkle with Chopped Fresh Parsley before serving.
