Procedure

1. Set a pizza stone on a rack in top third of oven. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F for at least 45 minutes. Meanwhile, remove the dough ball from refrigerator and let stand for 20 minutes.
2. Working on a floured surface and using your fingers, press and stretch dough out to a 10-inch round, working from center toward the edge; avoid pressing on outermost edge. Transfer dough to a lightly floured pizza peel. Spread Parmigiano-Reggiano and Fontina cheeses onto dough, making sure to leave a 1-inch border around edge, and top with squash, rosemary, and chiles.
3. Turn oven to broil for 5 minutes, then return it to 500 degrees F. Slide pizza onto pizza stone, opening and closing oven door as quickly as possible. Bake until bottom is lightly charred and toppings are bubbling, about 6 minutes for a chewier crust and 8 minutes for a crispier one; avoid opening the oven door during baking. Top pizza with the arugula before serving.

The whole process should produce a delicious 10-inch summer pizza recipe. Serve it while it’s hot. Don’t forget to pair it with your favorite refreshments. In case you’re alone and can’t consume the whole pizza, place it in your fridge and reheat when needed.
