Steps:

• Position an oven rack on the second highest position, put a pizza stone on it and preheat the oven for 1 hour to as high as your oven goes, usually 500 to 550 degrees F.
• Divide the pizza dough into 2 pieces. On a floured surface, gently roll out each piece of dough into a 10- to 12-inch circle. Transfer one piece of dough to a floured pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet. Ladle about 1/4 cup of the Alfredo sauce on the pizza, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Top with half the mozzarella. Transfer to the pizza stone and bake until golden and bubbly, rotating halfway through, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with half the prosciutto slices. Next, scatter with half of the figs. Bake for another 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining dough and pizza toppings.

Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small bowl with the garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste.

• Roll out the dough, and line a 12- or 14-inch pizza pan. Brush all but the rim of the dough with the remaining olive oil. Arrange the green pepper rings over the dough. Place in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, and top with slices of mozzarella, placing the cheese inside and between the pepper rings. Distribute the roasted peppers over the surface of the pizza, and drizzle on the juice remaining in the bowl.
