Preparation
Step 1
Directions
1. Pulse parsley, basil, walnuts, Parmesan, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor until finely chopped. With the motor running, add oil and 1 tablespoon water in a steady stream and process until smooth, thinning with additional water if necessary. Transfer pesto mixture to a small bowl.
2. Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Divide dough into 2 equal pieces and stretch or roll each piece into a thin 8-by-12-inch oval.
3. Lightly coat a grill with cooking spray, then heat to medium high. Place both pieces of dough on grill and cook until dark brown grill marks have formed, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, carefully flip and cook the other side until dry, about 2 minutes more or until dough easily releases from grill.
4. Transfer flatbreads to a large, clean work surface, darker side up. Spread 3 tablespoons pesto on each (refrigerate remainder for up to 3 days) and top with mozzarella and zucchini. Return to grill, cover and cook until cheese has melted and zucchini is cooked, 4 to 6 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, toss together arugula, lemon juice, remaining salt, and pepper. Top flatbreads with dressed arugula.
