Lunch: Avocado, Feta, and Cherry Tomato Salsa Flatbreads

Recipe by Charlie Hallowell Chef Charlie Hallowell — a Chez Panisse alum — makes the dough for his colorful flatbreads, topping them with a fresh tomato salsa instead of sauce. Store-bought pizza dough works perfectly well, too.

Ingredients

2 c. cherry tomatoes
1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
1 small shallot
1/3 c. mint
1/3 c. cilantro
1 1/2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
kosher salt
Black pepper
all-purpose flour
1 lb. store-bought pizza dough
4 oz. feta cheese
1 Hass avocado

Instructions

In a bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes with the 1/2 cup of olive oil, shallot, mint, cilantro, vinegar, and crushed red pepper. Season the salsa with salt and black pepper.
Light a grill. On a lightly floured work surface, press and stretch each piece of dough to an 8-inch oval and brush with olive oil. Grill two dough ovals over moderately high heat, turning once, until puffed and lightly charred, 5 minutes. Transfer to a work surface. Repeat with the remaining dough. Spoon the salsa over the flatbreads and top with the feta and avocado. Cut the flatbreads into wedges and serve right away. Looking for more quick and easy recipes?
