Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, divided
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper, divided
  • 14 oz store-bought fresh pizza dough
  • 6 figs, thinly sliced crosswise, divided
  • 8 oz feta cheese, crumbled (about 2 cups)
  • 1/4 c balsamic vinegar
  • 1 c loosely packed arugula

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium. Add red onion and ¼ teaspoon each of the kosher salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until tender, 2 minutes.
  2. Roll the pizza dough into a ¼-inch-thick, 17- x 11-inch rectangle. Place on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Top evenly with cooked onions, one-third of the fig slices, and cheese. Bake until crust is lightly browned and done, 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, cook balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Top the flatbread with remaining figs, arugula, and balsamic reduction.
