Artichoke, Spinach, and Prosciutto Flatbreads with Spicy Honey

Kalon was so mad at me for making this. He asked why we can't have a normal supper, and said that Italians would be outraged, how could you put lemon zest on a pizza (it's not pizza, it's flatbread). From now on I am making food for myself and no one else and he can go back to live with his Grandpa and eat cheese sandwiches together forever.

I didn't buy artichokes to make with this, and I just cooked a bag of fresh spinach, not frozen. It looks more pureed in the picture on the website but I don't think it matters. I used pizza dough in a bag from Sobeys - it's usually by the deli section and is sometimes frozen. I let it come to room temperature before I rolled it out. I also put the prosciutto on about 1 minute before I took it out of the oven.

3 tablespoons olive oil
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 (10-ounce) package frozen spinach, thawed
1 (9-ounce) package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest
Cornmeal (for pans)
1 pound frozen pizza dough, thawed
All-purpose flour (for surface)
1/2 pound Parmesan cheese, grated on the large holes of a box grater (about 2 cups), divided
3 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto

Position racks in middle and upper third of oven and preheat to 475ºF.

Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium. Add garlic and parsley and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add spinach and artichokes, toss to coat, and cook, covered, until artichokes are tender, 10–12 minutes. Uncover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until juices thicken, about 2 minutes. Season with 1/2 tsp. salt and a pinch of black pepper. Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest.

Sprinkle 2 rimless baking sheets with cornmeal. Roll out half of the dough on floured surface to a 12x7" oval. Transfer to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.

Sprinkle each round with 1/2 cup Parmesan, then top evenly with artichoke and spinach mixture. Top with remaining 1 cup Parmesan and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until crust is golden brown, 20–22 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine honey and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.

Remove flatbreads from oven. Top with prosciutto and drizzle with spicy honey. Cut flatbreads into wedges and serve.

(If mixture doesn’t foam, discard and start over with new yeast.) Stir together salt and 3 cups flour in a large bowl. Add yeast mixture and remaining 1 1/2 cups warm water and stir until smooth, then stir in 1 cup more flour. If dough sticks to your fingers, stir in just enough flour (up to 3/4 cup), a little at a time, to make dough just come away from side of bowl. (This dough may be wetter than other pizza doughs you have made.) Knead dough on a lightly floured surface with floured hands, lightly reflouring work surface and your hands when dough becomes too sticky, until dough is smooth, soft, and elastic, about 10 minutes. Divide dough i...
