Step 1
Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it heats.
Step 2
On a floured surface, stretch the 1 lb pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza peel.
Step 3
Spread the 1/2 cup tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with the 1 cup shredded mozzarella.
Step 4
Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and browned in spots.
Step 5
In a bowl, toss the 2 cups arugula with the 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Step 6
Top the hot pizza with the dressed arugula and shave or sprinkle the 1/2 cup parmesan over the top. Slice and serve immediately.
Step 7
Optional: add a drizzle of balsamic glaze or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
