SHEET-PAN PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Combine the flour, sugar, salt and yeast in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Combine the hot water and 2 tablespoons olive oil, then add to the mixer on low speed and mix until a loose ball forms. (You can also do this by hand: Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, then add the water and oil and stir with a wooden spoon.)
• Knead the dough with the mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and slightly tacky, about 7 minutes. (If using your hands, bring the dough together into a ball, then turn out onto a smooth surface and knead, dusting your hands and the surface as needed with flour, until the dough is smooth and slightly tacky, about 5 minutes.)
• Pour the remaining 1/3 cup olive oil into an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet or black steel pan. Transfer the ball of dough to the pan, turning to coat with the oil. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until the dough fills about two-thirds of the pan, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Slide your hands under the dough and lift, gently stretching the dough to fit the pan. (It's OK if it doesn't stretch to the corners.) For the final rise, cover the dough with plastic wrap and set aside until slightly puffy, 30 to 45 minutes. Top and bake as directed.

SHEET-PAN PIZZAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 550 degrees F, or to as high as your oven will go.
• Drizzle 1 to 2 tablespoons oil over a 13-x-18-inch sheet pan. Place one ball of on the sheet pan and gently stretch out towards the edges; it should stretch to within 1 inch of the edge of the pan all the way around. If the dough resists stretching and springs back, set it aside for a few minutes to relax, then try again. Repeat this with the other ball of dough on a second sheet pan.
• For the pesto, pea and burrata pizza: Combine the peas and salt in a small bowl and mash with a fork. Set aside.
• Drizzle one stretched pizza crust with 1 to 2 tablespoons oil, then bake it until the edges start to turn golden and the middle puffs up slightly, about 7 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven and top with the pesto, peas and another drizzle of oil. Bake until browned around the edges and bubbling, about 5 minutes longer.
• Remove the pizza from the oven. Tear the burrata into chunks and dot it over the pizza. Sprinkle with the Parmesan, basil and black pepper. Slice and serve.
• For the Margherita with prosciutto pizza: Stir the tomato paste, oil, salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Spread the mixture over the other stretched pizza dough in a thin even layer. Sprinkle with the mozzarella.
• Place in the oven and bake until puffed and golden around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with the prosciutto, basil leaves and arugula. Drizzle with a little more oil and sprinkle with pepper and flaked salt. Slice and serve.

SHEET PAN RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place eggplant, zucchinis, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and garlic in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper; toss vegetables until well coated.
• Roast in the preheated oven until slightly tender; about 20 minutes. Mix and roast for another 12 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) and cook until vegetables begin to caramelize; about 10 minutes. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

SHEET PAN PIZZAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease 3 large rimmed baking sheets. Place one dough ball in each baking sheet, and stretch and press the dough to fit into the pan.
• For the BBQ Chicken Pizza: Toss 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce with the chicken. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup barbecue sauce over one pizza dough. Top with the chicken, red onion, cilantro and cheese.
• For the Pepperoni Pizza: Spread the pizza sauce over another pizza dough. Top with pepperoni and cheese.
• For the Veggie Pizza: Spread the pizza sauce over the third pizza dough. Top with mushrooms, both bell peppers, spinach and cheese.
• Bake all of the pizzas until the crusts are browned and crispy and the cheese is melted, rotating the pans as needed to cook the pizzas evenly, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the pizzas stand 5 minutes before cutting. Drizzle the BBQ Chicken Pizza with additional barbecue sauce and sprinkle with cilantro, if desired. Sprinkle the Pepperoni Pizza with fresh basil.

SIMPLE SHEET PAN RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Arrange eggplant, zucchini, bell pepper, and onion on a greased or foil-lined baking sheet. Spray vegetables with cooking spray. Season with 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven, stirring and rotating pan once during cooking, until vegetables are lightly browned and tender, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir together tomato, oil, parsley, and 1/8 teaspoon each salt and black pepper in a large bowl. Add cooked vegetables and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss to combine.

SHEET-PAN RATATOUILLE WITH GOAT CHEESE AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees, and arrange two racks in the top and bottom thirds.
• On one rimmed 13-by-17-inch sheet pan, toss together onion slices, zucchini, 1/4 cup oil, 3 thyme springs, 2 rosemary sprigs, 3 garlic cloves and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• On a second rimmed baking sheet, toss together eggplant, red peppers, 1/4 cup oil, 3 thyme sprigs, 2 rosemary sprig, 3 garlic cloves and 3/4 teaspoon salt.
• Place one tray on the top rack, and a second on the bottom rack of the oven. Roast both for 40 minutes, stirring vegetables two or three times.
• Add tomatoes to the baking sheet with eggplant and peppers, then continue to roast until the tomatoes burst and the zucchini turn deeply golden brown, another 20 to 25 minutes. The vegetables will become very caramelized, and that's a good thing, particularly with the zucchini and onions.
• Transfer zucchini and onions to the baking sheet with eggplant, mix well, and spread in an even layer (it will just fit). Drizzle vegetables with another 1 tablespoon oil, then sprinkle goat cheese and olives over the top. Roast until goat cheese is soft and warmed through, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer vegetables to a serving platter, drizzle with a little more oil and squeeze juice from the one of the lemon wedges over the top. Garnish with basil leaves. Serve hot or warm, with more lemon wedges on the side.
