Marinated Mozzarella Pizzas - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil
2 tsp finely grated lemon peel
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tsp dried basil leaves
1 tub (8 oz) small mozzarella balls, drained
4 small whole wheat pita breads
4 oz drained sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil
1 clove garlic
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
2 oz baby arugula leaves

Preparation

Whisk oil, lemon peel and juice, and basil in a medium bowl. Add mozzarella balls; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours to marinate, stirring occasionally.
Preheat the oven to 400\u00b0F. Place pita breads on a large baking sheet. Process sun-dried tomatoes and garlic in a small food processor until smooth. Spread mixture evenly on each pita. Top with tomato slices and season.
Drain mozzarella, reserving the marinade. Slice mozzarella and divide among pitas. Drizzle with a little reserved marinade.
Bake 10-15 mins or until golden brown and crisp. Serve topped with the arugula. Drizzle with a little more reserved marinade.
