A few tips:
- Use high quality ingredients. Using good quality tomatoes that are sweet and flavorful makes the biggest difference.
- Use your favorite pesto. I used a basil and arugula pesto. It’s so creamy and flavorful.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet if you have one.
- Make sure that the pan is really hot before you fry the flatbread.
- The flatbread should be fried for 2-3 minutes on each side, until grill marks start to form.
- This pizza is best served warm.
