Yield Makes two 10-inch pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon instant dry yeast
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 eggplant (about 12 ounces), stemmed and cut lengthwise into 1-inch-thick slices
Coarse salt
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed, cut into 2-inch pieces
12 ounces provolone, thinly sliced
Fresh oregano leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Dough:Stir together flour, salt, yeast, and 1 1/4 cups water in a large bowl until dough is very sticky. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand 12 to 18 hours at room temperature.
  • Sprinkle dough with flour. Divide in half. Divide oil between two 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillets (preferably cast iron). Swirl to coat. Add dough to each skillet; turn to coat with oil. Gently flatten dough with your hand. Cover; let rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, about 2 hours.
  • Sauce:Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add pepper flakes and onion. Cook, stirring, until onion is tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Add tomatoes and juices. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly. Puree sauce in a blender, in batches (to avoid filling jar more than halfway), until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Toppings:Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place eggplant in a colander; season with salt. Let stand 30 minutes.
  • Rinse eggplant, drain, and pat dry. Arrange on a baking sheet; brush with 2 tablespoons oil. Roast, turning once, until very tender, about 25 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add chard in batches with 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Cook, stirring, until just wilted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Let cool.
  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees with rack in lower third. For each pizza, press dough until it touches edge of skillet. Ladle 3/4 cup sauce over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with 3 ounces cheese. Add 1/2 cup each chard and eggplant. Top with another 3 ounces cheese. Bake until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 18 minutes. Sprinkle with oregano; serve.
