Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 500°F with a pizza stone inside for 45 minutes to replicate wood-fired conditions.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp unsalted butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 8 oz sliced cremini mushrooms and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 6-7 minutes until mushrooms release their moisture and become golden.
Step 3: Season mushrooms with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper, stir and remove from heat.
Step 4: On a floured surface, roll out 1 lb pizza dough to a 12-inch round. Transfer to a pizza peel or parchment paper.
Step 5: Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella evenly over the dough, then evenly distribute the sautéed mushrooms.
Step 6: Carefully slide the pizza onto the heated stone and bake for 10-12 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is melted.
Step 7: Remove pizza from oven and tear 6 oz burrata cheese over the top.
Step 8: Toss 1 cup fresh arugula with 1 tsp lemon juice and scatter over the pizza.
Step 9: Finish with 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese. Slice and serve immediately.
